The Christmas remedy
Woodsmall, Cindy
When an Old Order Amish woman takes a job at a small-town pharmacy struggling to survive in a world of "big box" stores
her motive is to help her Plain community. But the advent of the holiday season brings an unusual mystery to the surface--and possibly love. Twenty-four-year-old Holly Zook lives a unique life for a young Amish woman. Years ago
her bishop allowed her to continue her education and become the lead technician for Greene's Pharmacy
an old-timey drugstore that looks out for the Amish community--a group largely without secure healthcare plans. She knows she can't marry and hold onto her professional job. She's Amish
and she can only have one or the other
so she spurns love and works toward addressing treatable diseases--like the one that claimed her father's life. As long as Holly continues to avoid Joshua Smucker
the one man who draws her like a warm hearth in winter
she should be fine. When something unexpected threatens Greene's Pharmacy
Holly and Joshua must work together to unravel what's happened and find the "missing" patient before the Board of Pharmacy shuts them down. As the snows of December arrive
with Christmas in the air
will Holly succumb to the generous spirit of the season?
