Jewelry Stories from the Amish Journeys Series
Welcome to the latest edition of Jewelry Stories! I’m so happy you’re here today, and thrilled to share this series with you and what I was inspired to create after reading each book in the Amish Journeys Series by Beth Wiseman. Today’s post is going to be a little lighter than usual as I had TWO Jewelry Stories posts last week – and I won’t lie, that was hard work! If no one ever told you that running a blog was hard, much less having a side business with it, they weren’t being honest with you. It’s almost like a second full-time job! Anyway…I digress. As you can see from…

Will…

Jewelry Stories from Finders Keepers
I am thrilled to be here with you twice in one week for another edition of Jewelry Stories! Today, we have a very special guest – Sarah Monzon, the author of Finders Keepers! I found this gem of a book by chance through my Kindle Unlimited subscription, and I loved it! Not only is it a split time novel (my fave!), but the romance and chemistry between Trent and Sarah is electric. I can highly recommend it! There were a couple of jewelry references in Finders Keepers, and one in particular that I really wanted more details on. Sarah not only answered some of my questions about it, but sent…

Jewelry Stories from Maire
Thank you so much for joining me for the latest edition of Jewelry Stories! I hope you are enjoying these fun posts each week as we peek a little further into the pages of my latest reads to find some jewelry treasures. I read Maire a few months back, and while it started off as a slow read, it didn’t take long before I was hooked into this story! It’s an older novel in the Christian historical fiction genre by an established author, Linda Windsor. When I read it, I wasn’t capturing a lot of quotes to share what specifically inspired me as I am now. I was mostly looking for…

Jewelry Stories from The Reluctant Bridegroom
Thank you so much for joining me for the latest edition of Jewelry Stories! I hope you are enjoying as we peek a little further into the pages of my latest reads to find some jewelry treasures. For this post, I’m featuring a book I found by happenstance at my local library – The Reluctant Bridegroom by Shannon Farrington. I’ve always enjoyed the books that were a part of the Love Inspired Historical line, and sadly, they have discontinued it. There’s still plenty of them out there that I haven’t read – oh, to have more hours in the day (I know you know how I feel). 🙂 I have…
