I love everything this author writes. Basically, if she writes it, I’ll read it.
Her characters are fantastic, the storyline held my attention throughout.
As usual, I highly recommend this book.

A great novella about a couple, one of whom is Amish and the other not. I would suggest reading the books before this in the Walnut Creek series to get an idea of who this couple is and to follow along with the story. I found this to be a fast read and only take a few hours to get through.

I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was such a sweet story to fill the time until the next novel.

I was given a complimentary copy of this ebook from the author, but was not required to write a review. The thoughts and comments are my own

I loved this book!! Great story!! Can't wait to read the next book in the series!! Love this author's books!! Received this book from gallery books from netgally!! Too short wish it was longer!!

In this novella Shelley Shepard Gray decided to update her readers on what been happening with the romance of Gabby and Kyle .You'll remember them from The Loyal One, the second book of The Walnut Creek series.I always love when we revisit characters - well written, great storyline - I love this author

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for allowing me to read this book.

A sweet story to tide us over until the next full-length novel release in January 2020 in the Walnut Creek series.

I had grown very interested in Kyle and Gabby’s story from the other novels and was happy to see Shelley had written their story. Although not a Christmas book it is sure to warm the coldest hearts this holiday season. It will give you hope that love can overcome just about any obstacle. A little faith can make the hardest times in life a bit easier.

Although A Precious Gift is a novella between the second and third books of the series you can read it as a stand-alone. All the books in the series can.

This was such a sweet story! I have been really enjoying the Walnut Creek series! It’s always great going back to visit with the Eight and their families and friends. I loved it!

What a sweet sweet story!! I loved how everything turned out perfectly just like God had intended for it to! And of course we can't forget the author now can we??
This author is one of my most favorites! I never miss any of her books! Her style of writing is just out of this world!!
This story is one of forgiveness. A child's love for her parent can be vexing at times and I love the strong bond they had. In fact I'm almost jealous!! My own mother was never very affectionate. Especially after I got older. But then again, she was sick too. So not fair.
But then again who said life was fair?
I love stories like this because we know that in real life teens do get kicked out of the house and of course the man most often times always runs off because he doesn't want the responsibility. How sad.
In this book there is Hope. Hope at the end of a long dark tunnel. And God really has given us the most precious gift of all.
I'm so glad he did!!!! He's amazing!!
My thanks to Netgalley for a copy of this book. NO compensations were received and all opinions are my own.

A Precious Gift by Shelley Shepard Gray is book 2.5 in The Walnut Creek series. I would not recommend reading A Precious Gift on its own. It is best to read the books in this series in order so that you can get to know the characters. I thought A Precious Gift was well-written with developed, realistic characters. Kyle Lambright is nineteen years old, but he has the maturity of a much older man. Kyle is a kind and thoughtful individual who is there for Gabby. Gabby is a sweet, smart young woman. I thought the situations presented in the story were realistic. I could see this story playing out right now for two teenagers. I enjoyed reading this story that had love, family, friendship and faith. I look forward to my next visit to Walnut Creek, Ohio. A Precious Gift is an emotional story that will touch your heart.

Is history repeating itself Gabby and Kyle? Love, acceptance and forgiveness are all highlighted in this sweet story. The order of this series is a little confusing but worth a read.

Teen girl and teen guy fall in love, sounds simple and rather romantic, right?
Not so fast though, what if the teen girl is an Englisher and the teen guy is Amish?
This is one of those books, I enjoyed so much I simply did not put it down until I was finished.
Emotional,yet romantically solid you will be moved by this couples journey. Not always an easy one, he shows more maturity than some grown men do when faced with this situation.
Full of faith,charm and a certain truth you will enjoy your time spent in Walnut Creek, Ohio.
I can't wait to read more in this series, this was a very enjoyable book!


Expected publication: November 5th 2019 by Gallery Books.
I was given a complimentary copy. Thank you.
