Courting Miss Amsel
By Kim Vogel Sawyer
Published by Bethany House
Escaping a life of familial servant hood, and responsibility Edythe Amsel moves to Walnut Hill, Nebraska where she has been hired as the town’s new schoolteacher. Bright, strong-minded and creative, Edythe longs to evoke a passion in her students for learning and exploring everything the vast world has to offer… whether the town is ready for her unorthodox methods or not.
Joel Townsend is an honest hardworking man, filled with integrity and kindness. Having taken in his two nephews after their parents’ death in a tragic wagon accident, Joel is hoping to someday find a mother figure for the boys. When Joel witnesses the gentle kindness with which Miss Amsel treats the children of Walnut Hill, he believes he may have found such a woman. Unfortunately, Miss Amsel is dead set against the idea of marriage, and the town seems dead set against her remaining the schoolteacher.
Heartwarming and witty, Courting Miss Amsel is Historical Christian Romance at its best. Kim Vogel Sawyer is an expert at character development and description, easily bringing the reader into each and every experience in a very personal way. Beautifully set and written, Courting Miss Amsel will leave your heart full and uplifted.
