Ruth Price

Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the Goodreads database with this name.

As a lifelong Pennsylvanian, I’ve (Ruth Price) had a unique opportunity to meet Amish folks in my everyday life. It’s a delight to get to know a culture and people who may have a different way of living but share a common love of God and a common belief in the goodness of other human beings. I try to channel this higher good through my fiction, and while I can’t say I always reach that ideal, I hope my stories inspire and entertain.

If not, I do hope you enjoy my books and stories however you stumble across them.
