Fall Happenings
Fall is shaping up to be a busy time in the Chapman household. I’m hoping to take a research trip to Alpine Texas, which is the setting for a new dystopian series I’m writing. (If you enjoyed Deep Shadows, you’re going to love these books.) We also have a mini-reunion for my husband and his college buddies. And lastly, I’ll have 3 releases.
Dead Set
Publisher: Indie (original)
Releasing: 9-21-21
This is Book 3 in my Agatha’s Amish B&B series. Agatha’s B&B is undergoing a renovation when she uncovers some lost Texas treasure. Once the diamond-studded Waynard Buckle is returned to its rightful owner, Agatha hopes that will be the end of it. Unfortunately, the trouble is just beginning… You can read the entire blurb here for Amazon and here for all other ebook vendors. I hope to have the print book ready for purchase before 9-21. This one will only be available on-line, so order your copy now!
An Amish Baby for Christmas
Publisher: Love Inspired (original)
Releasing: 10-26-21
Thomas Albrecht agrees to help Widow Yutzy with her farm, though he’s never met her. He often does work for the elderly in Shipshewana, but this time Thomas is in for a surprise. Abigail is not elderly. She’s stubborn and opinionated and more than willing to speak her mind. She’s also frightened and unsure how to navigate the months ahead as she waits for her first child to be born. As for Thomas, he understands that he needs to finish this job as quickly as possible before he gets too close to Abigail and risks losing his heart. Pre-order at Amazon here or see all other vendor links here. You should also be able to find copies at your local Walmart.
The Amish Christmas Secret and The Amish Widow’s Christmas Hope
Publisher: Love Inspired (reprint) with Carrie Lighte
Releasing: 10-26-21
This is a 2-in-1 reprint. If you missed my book, The Amish Christmas Secret when it originally released last year, now’s your chance to grab a copy. I’m thrilled to be paired with the lovely Carrie Lighte. You can pre-order at Amazon here or see all other vendor links here. You can also watch for this one at your local Walmart.
In Texas, we are counting the days until cooler weather. Once it arrives, I’m hoping to sneak in a couple of camping trips. That’s my fall in a nutshell. What do you have planned?

Looking forward to reading these two new releases! I always find myself wishing your main characters were my neighbors, they’re so “real” and appealing. Thanks for all your hard work.

Your books sound great. I am especially looming forward to Dead Set. No special plans for Fall here but will enjoy the breezes coming soon and leaves changing colors. I titally respect folks like you who can write great books and do amazing crafts too. My hobby is reading books and I am passionate about it. Im always buying new books & rehoming books through our local free library boxes. Have a great Fall!

I will wait until Dead Set is out in paperback. I take books to a local women’s shelter that my lodge helps.
I can’t wait to read, I enjoy your books when I can find them. It is hard to find them in stock in my area.

Is Dead Set offered in print?
Yes – it will be offered in print through Amazon. Thank you for asking!
I should have the link up before release day.
Good Morning, your books look and sound like very good reads! Thank you for sharing about them. I live in west Texas and I know what you mean, I am really looking forward to Fall. I am looking forward to planting some pansies and some cooler weather. Have a great week and stay safe.
Always enjoy the 2 in 1 reprints. 2 authors for a great price.
I love those covers! Especially the Amish Christmas Secret one!
I have the first book in the series but the second one in Agatha’s Amish Bed andBreakfast only came out in Nook or larger print. How do I get the second book Dead Broke in paperback before the third book comes out?
You can order the paperback copy of Dead Broke from Amazon. That’s the only retailer where it’s offered at this time.

Wow – you sure are busy! I hope you get to take a couple of camping trips when the weather cools down. I hope to travel North when covid calms down. I will look for these new releases at our local Walmart. Blessings from Florida! ☀️
I can’t wait to read your new Christmas release.
Everything is pre-ordered. I never want to miss one of your books!!!
Question: How do the Amish feel about covid vaccines/facemasks? Are they as varied in their responses as the rest of us are, or of one accord?
Hi Patricia. I’ll answer this in next month’s newsletter. Thanks for submitting–it’s a great question.
I love your books & can’t wait to read the new ones!! Thanks for haing the giveaways.

I love your books and can’t wait to read these!
Busy lady. Want to read them all. I’m busy finishing up my canning. After that it’s time to clean up the garden and flower beds and then it will be time for raking leaves and getting all my windows washed and some fall cleaning.
I’m excited to read these books, especially An Amish Baby for Christmas! I’m looking forward to the temperatures dropping enough that I can get back to crocheting my 2021 Temperature Blanket.
I’m especially eager to read An Amish Baby for Christmas and The Amish Christmas Secret.
Love your Amish fiction!
Will certainly look for your new book. We made a trip from Kansas to Shipshewana a few years ago. Loved staying at the Blue Gate Garden Inn.
Looking forward to reading your new books.
I can’t wait to read Dead Set.. So excited.. i am almost finished reading Dead Broke.. All your books are fantastic! Also I am looking forward to the new dystopian series .. Keep writing…:)
I love reading Amish stories. I am celebrating my 46 th wedding anniversary this Sunday.
I read the first book of yours in a dystopian series about when there was no electrical power and how Christians had got together to help each other and there were evil people even in the government. And you also write Amish books! What a difference!
I love your books, especially Agatha’s series. We are going to Ft. Worth in October to help with our granddaughters and I am hoping it will be cooler.
An Amish Baby for Christmas has the sweetest cover. Can’t wait to have cooler weather to sit by the fireplace and read.
