Three loosely connected stories about the Lamberts. Each was an enjoyable read; I especially enjoyed the one about the couple struggling to deal with infertility and the overall "drift" in their marriage. Lovely encouragement for those on the journey of Christian faith.

Three different faith filled romance stories about the Lambert family set in New Hampshire. The stories are loosely connected . I do like to see the faith filled romances they are caring and respectful stories.

This is a book containing three separate novellas. In my opinion, the first and third were very similar with the heroine not wanting to get into any sort of relationship because of ambition. The second dealt with a married couple's infertility, which was my favorite of the three. I think RH handled the emotions around infertility and the strain on a relationship with care. The other two novellas were more like a read for a nice escape; exactly what I was aiming for when I chose to read this book. The book was enjoyable, and I especially enjoyed how the characters strived to be closer to Jesus in all three of the novellas, and how Jesus' love for us was a central theme. I highly recommend this book, especially if you like Christian Romance novels.

New Hampshire Weddings by Rachel Hauck is three stories, all intertwined among the same town and families. In each story, a different main character deals with a different problem and finds their way to the answer through love, faith and friendship. Like other Hauck books that I've read, this was a light, uplifting read that leaves your heart singing. A perfect book for a lazy summer day.

Christian harlequin romances. I did like the feel good aspects of it. I felt wholesome reading this book. And parts of the stories touched and spoke to me. Hoping some of the good rubbed off on me. The stories were pretty weak though.

I was quite surprised by this book and author! It's three stories into one book about the lambert family. I loved the first and last stories. Well done with the Christian based theme!

Good collection of stories. Quick & easy read. Enjoyed characters and setting of stories.
Lambert's Pride, Lambert's Code & Lambert's Peace.
Would read author's other stories.

[Marissa · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a book with 3 stories in one. But all three stories have the same characters in them but the main characters are different in each one. Basically there are three cousins, who come from a big family. They all go through different and difficult trials and situations before they find love. I feel this book has a bit of everything. Thoroughly enjoyed all three stories. Wonderful book.
