In celebration and anticipation of the release of THE BRIDGE OF PEACE on August 31, I’m having a month of contests.
To read the first chapter or order online, go to
http://www.cindywoodsmall.com/books/bridge-of-peace_excerpt.php
I posted a contest yesterday on my Facebook pages, both Friends and Fans. The response was so amazing! Readers never cease to awe me with their support! Thank you. Because of yesterday’s contest, we have TWELVE winners. Each one will receive an autographed copy of The Bridge of Peace. I tallied the number of entrants and used Random.org to choose the winners. Because everyone’s full or partial name wasn’t listed on Amazon, I’ve listed what name or tag was used, and then I’ve shown the comment that person left. I didn’t notice any duplicate names being used, but if only your first name or partial name is used on Amazon, please be sure to verify your tag/name with the comment to make sure it matches what you wrote. If you’re a winner, please e-mail me privately at cindy [at] cindywoodsmall [dot] com or you can contact me by going to http://www.cindywoodsmall.com/contact.php. Please send your name and mailing address. If you’d like the book autographed to someone other than you, just let me know.
The Winners
1. Vanessa Vergh ~ “I love Cindy Woodsmall’s books. I never want to stop reading them once I start. They are worth buying and reading.”
2. Margaret Anderson ~ “I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all of Cindy’s books. I’m waiting patiently for “The Bride of Peace” to be released. My copy has been on order through Amazon for a couple of months.”
3. Michelle ~ “Cindy spins another wonderful saga and I am waiting patiently for the Bridge of Peace!! I literally cannot put her books down once I start them!!”
4. Pilotcardriver ~ “i would just love to read this book, it look like a book u won’t put down until u have read it all. Cindy u go girl. Keep the books coming and i will keep buying them. May god bless u and keep u.”
5. John Taraborrelli ~ “This book was one of Cindy’s best books yet. A definite must read. Looking forward to more of Cindy’s writing.”
6. W. Bailey ~ “I can’t get enough of Cindy Woodsmall’s work. The Hope of Refuge was beautifully written. I could picture the scenes and felt a part of the story. I have learned so much about the Amish reading her work. All of her books provide an education into the Amish life and provide much entertainment as well. I had a hard time putting this book down.”
7. Debbie S. Peterson ~ “I am a huge fan of all of Cindy’s writing. Her books pull me in from page 1 I feel as though I am watching the story unfold in my mind. I have never started reading any of her books without reading the entire book at one time. She is an amazing writer and captures the Amish so well.”
8. LeAnn ~ “Cara has been through a lot. First the death of her mom, then raised in foster care and being chased by a madman. She and her daughter are now safe and can’t wait for book two. It’s like you are living in the community with them. The feeling of joy and happiness is there despite the hardship. Thank you, Cindy, for your wonderful books. I have all but 2 of your books. I can’t wait for book 2.”
9. Teresa L. Crawford ~ “Cindy’s books have captivated me from day one. I have read all her other books and Hope of Refuge was very heart wrenching. Can’t wait to read what happens to some of the other people in future books. Continue your great writing.”
10. Kathleen M. Faberge ~ “A great book which gives a wonderful picture of Amish life. As usual, all the characters are beloved and wonderfully developed. The book is a picture of hope!”
11. Jenalyns Faith “Holly” ~ “This debut of a new series has some great characters and a cliff hanger that leaves readers begging for more. Even as it’s only a month away, I can’t wait to find out what happens to Cara and ‘From.’ Reading Amish fiction from the perspective of an Englisher makes this book all the more fascinating.”
12. Candygram ~ “I love all of Cindy’s books. She’s so true to the Amish ways and her stories are delightful. I go to Lancaster County at least once a year for 20+ years and have become friends with some of the Amish so I feel she’s right on target. She keeps you wanting more.”

I adore your books. They are full of so much love and hope. If I’m having a really bad day and I need a pick me up, I start re-reading one of your books. It always makes me feel better, or at least forces me to think of something else, like being Amish, lol.

I have only one book of yours left to read-The sound of Sleigh Bells. I will be starting it this weekend. I have to plan it that way becuase I cant put it down once I start. The books are a wonderful inspiration. I cant wait for your next book!

Have loved reading your books. They are a blessing and inspiration to read. Can hardly wait for the completed “Ada’s House” series to be out as I don’t start to read a series until complete. My books are than passed on to others to read. Loved your “Sisters of the Quilt Series” as well as your stand-alone “The Sound of Sleigh Bells.”
I have loved reading all of your books. I gave them to my Mom and sister-in-law to read. They loved them too. I can’t wait for Bridge of Peace to come out. I enjoyed meeting you a couple of years ago at the book club meeting.

I have just discovered your books a short time ago and have now read all of them. I found them so interesting and it was very difficult for me to put them down. I am so looking forward to “The Bridge of Peace”! I hope I have a chance to win a copy of your book.
I would love to win an autographed copy of your book. I read the Sisters of the Quilt series and loved it. Picked up the first one at the library and had to go back to get the others right away to finish the story!
Would love to have an autographed copy of your new book!

Is there any chance your new book “The Bridge of Peace” will be out sooner than Aug. 31?
I have read all your books and so look forward to reading the new one. I just know I will no more get the new book read and dread having to wait for your next one. You are just a terrific author. May God Bless you.
I don’t think so, Mary. Sorry. If it helps any, I have no control over that part–only over the content of the book itself.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all of your books and look forward to reading ‘Bridge of Peace’!
I cannot wait until the 31st of August to read the new book. I have read every other Cindy Woodsmall book and love the characters and plots. I feel a part of their lives by the time I finish each book and really hate to finish the books because I miss them like I would family members. Cindy is very talented and I am really hoping for many, many more books in the future! My only wish…..that she could write faster and get out more books!
Cindy,
I love reading your books. I am so into the story that I feel like I am standing with the characters and feeling what they are feeling. Laugh when they laugh and cry when they cry. Living in Amish country as I do, I can appreciate your stories being very realistic.
Congratulations on the review….although we all know that you deserve it!!! Looking forward to Bridge of Peace!
Congratulations on the awesome review! I cannot wait to read it!!!
Love, love, love Cindy Woodsmall’s books… So, far I’ve read them all and waiting for the new book to come out; going to snatch it up as fast as I can get it! Thank you and may the Lord continue to bless your writting efforts.

I LOVE everything about your books. From the translations to the list of characters…the story that just pulls me right in to Amish country,and the Amish recepies at the end. When I have a new book of yours at home I can’t wait to finish my housework,errands,etc. so I can dive into another world, and just get lost in the pages for awhile. I can’t wait to read The Bridge of Peace.Congratulations and thank you Cindy for your wonderful books!
I enjoy reading the Amish novels. Cindy has a way of really letting the reader get into the heads of the characters in a very real way. I can’t put her books down once I get it started. What a great author.
Thanks for your books, Cindy, and the opportunity to win Bridge of Peace. I loved Hope of Refuge and have been looking forward to reading more. Your books are beautifully written with characters who seem so real to me! Their stories uplift and encourage, and always draw the reader closer to God.
Still patiently waiting for TBOP to come out. I’m so glad it’s almost ready to hit my iPad!
Congratulations on the great review but what could we expect but greatness. All of your books have been wonderful and I’ve read them all. Looking forward to this one!

The Sisters of the Quilt series was among the 1st Amish fiction books I ever read. They were so wonderful, I couldn’t put them down, and when I was thru with them, I had to find more Amish fiction books. The Hope of Refuge was equally as good, and I can’t wait for A Bridge of Peace to be released. Excellent books!
I cannot wait for the new book. I always have to read your books in one sitting, no easy task with two kids under 6! A year is too long between books.

I love Cindy’s books. I can’t wait for the next one to come out.
I absolutely love Cindy’s books !! With each one I have become completely involved in the story. Have caught myself laughing and crying right along with the story itself. To me, that is what reading is supposed to be all about!! Keep it up.
Cindy’s books are the best. Once I start reading one of the books, it’s hard to put down. They relax me and takes me back to a time growing up in Ohio. I remember seeing the Amish people riding in their buggies and going to their to their markets out in the country.
Thanks Cindy. You are one of a kind. Can’t wait till your book comes out.
I’ve read all your books, Cindy, and love your work! You always make me feel like I’m a fly on the wall and really get to know the characters and what they’re going through. Your books take me to a life style that’s relaxing and I can temporarily withdraw from life’s everyday stresses! Thank your for sharing your talent with your readers!

Oh Cindy! Finally a new book of yours to read! I can’t wait. I’m tired of waiting! Your books are the best. I wish it weren’t so late tonight or I would go read the first chapter now. Who knows I might break the rules and read it tonight if I can keep my tired eyes open.
I know quality is important to you and I love that about you but I get so impationt waiting for more. I don’t find another to compare to your books!
God Bless you and I’m so proud of you and your wonderful work!
I can’t wait for your latest book to be released. I love your books. Keep up the awesome work.
God Bless

Cindy,
I am so glad you are running an other contest. I just finished your series, Sisters of the Quilt, and couldn’t put it down (except to feed my boys, throw laundry in the washer, and ocassionally sleep)! I am looking forward to reading the next series as soon as I get caught up enough.
I can’t wait for Bridge of Peace. I’m hoping that Amazon can ship early! Would love autographed copy. Your writing touches me.
Cindy, Thank you for writing another series of books. I have admired your writing about the amish and so look forward to reading “The Bridge of peace,”…please enter me in your competition even though i have pre-ordered your new book. i can always give the ordered copy to a friend.
Thanks

Ever since I discovered When the Heart Cries, I have loved reading your books. My favorite so far has been The Hope of Refuge & I can’t wait for the second in the series. Thanks for all the wonderful reading you provide!
Thank you for the fun contests!
Cindy, I have read all of your books at least twice if not more. I was raised just north of Lancaster, PA so I know you have done a lot research for your books so they are accurate. I am so looking forward to the Bridge of peace that I can’t wait till it comes out. Keep up all of the inspiration that you have given me an countless of others.
Cindy, I have read all your books and can’t wait to read this one. Yours were the books that got me started on reading Amish Fiction.
I have read most of your books and love them. They have a way of bringing you into the story and you feel you know the characters directly. I’m looking forward to this new book coming out and anxious to read it. Keep writing these wonderful novels.
I love love love your books!!! I have read all of your Amish books and can’t wait for the rest to come out!! I would love to win!
Out of all the Amish books I’ve read I have enjoyed yours the most. It is so hard to wait for an upcoming sequel after I’ve read one or two. I would absolutely love to win an autographed copy of The Bridge of Peace.
I love all of your books and can’t wait to read the new one. It has been so long since I read Hope of Refuge, I think i will re read it before reading Bridge of Peace.
I LOVE your books; definately one of my fav authors!!! The only thing not to like is the long wait between finishing one book and the next coming out!!! lol
I have read all of your books. Although I don’t save many books once I’ve finished with them, yours remain and are front and centre on my very small shelf of “special” books. I was thrilled to get the bookplates for them and would love nothing more than to win one of your contests. Thanks for the opportunity. Looking forward to reading the first chapter of “The Bridge….”.
Hi Cindy–Have read some of ur books and love them!! Would love to read this one and know it will be the same quality of those I have read before. Sweetie, u’ve really got a great sense of people and seem to understand how they think and feel. Would love a chance to win one of these books! Have a great week!
Hi Cindy! Thanks for giving those of us that couldn’t comment on Amazon another chance! I love all your books and would love to have a copy of your newest adventure! May God Bless!
I love your books. Look forward to reading your new one!
I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you. Your writing is not only inspriational but also uplifting! My best friend introduced me to your books. I visited your website to see some excerts before purchasing…instant need to read! Being a teacher myself, I could immediately relate to the character in Bridge of Peace! So needless to say, I hurried out and got Hope of Refuge and loved every word of it. I’m glad school is starting soon so that I’ll stay busy until the release date! LOL. Thanks again Cindy, and God bless you.
I love and have all Cindy’s books…once you start reading I guarantee you will not be able to put them down…they are my down time at the end of the day and some nights I have a hard time putting the book down so i can get some sleep..LOL..I love Cara and her story..can’t wait for the Bridge of Peace..God Bless you Cindy
I love your books. Can’t wait to read your newes!
Thank you for your faithful writing of good wholesome books! Am eagerly awaiting your newest book.
I have loved all of your books & cannot wait for the next one to be released! Your books are the kind that once you start reading them you can’t put them down until the end & you’re still wanting more!! Looking forward to reading The Bridge of Peace when it comes out =)
I love your books Mrs. Cindy. You do an amazing job writing. Your creativity puts me in a peace of mind status. I love reading your books! You have the ability to transform our own life into the Amish setting! Keep up the GREAT work. Can’t wait to read the newest one.
I LOVE your books!!!! And I have followed Cara’s story from the beginning, and have been waiting for this book to come out ever since the last one did- b/c I read the last one in 1 DAY!!! They are soooo addicting!! I can’t wait to get this new one!!! Hope I’m a winner on the 7th!!
I’ll keep trying your contests and maybe one day I’ll be a winner. Love your books. Congratulations to all the past winners:0)
I have pre-ordered Bridge of Peace and can hardly stand the wait to receive it! I love Cindy’s books and have and will read everything she writes. I love the characters she creates. I also love that Cindy is on Facebook so much and is very accessible to her readers.
Cindy, I love your books! I have reread all of them many times!! The last one helped me through my divorce last fall!! He left me for another woman because of my health issues. I just kept rereading and realized that I didn’t have the kind of husband I wanted or needed. He wasn’t a Christian and wasn’t a kind or loving person. Your books have showed me attributes I want in a man – that is if I ever want another one! Thank you for sharing such wonderful stories!!! Lisa
I am patiently waiting for the “Bridge of Peace” to come out. Even though I will be starting classes, I am going to take the free time I have to savor each and every word in the book to give my mind a break from the accounting I am taking. Thanks for writing such heart-warming and wonderful stories. Yvonne
Cindy you know how to give every person in the story a personality, and the feeling you pring out is so powerfull. I have read and reread and reread all of your books. Patiently waiting for the next new one!
I am so EXCITED for the debut of your new book. The first book I read was The Hope of Refuge, while my husband was in ICU. Other than while I was in school seriously this was the first entire book I had read. That was only last August and since I have read every title you have published. The Amish lifestyle has intrigued me since I was very young and your narratives have a way of completely capturing my attention. You are an excellent author and I look forward to all your future books.
I enjoy reading your books, you are a very talented and gifted person. I am so glad to see the next book coming out, can’t wait to read it. I think my favorte books you wrote was the ones about Hannah, loved those books. I hope I can be a winner of The Bridge of Peace Keep up the good work Cindy.
I absolutely love The Hope of Refuge! It is amazing how a fiction book can connect me to the Love of God in a special way. I am looking forward to reading the new book!:)
Cindy,
I would love to win a copy of Bridge of Peace. I just added it to my wish list earlier this week, so it’s great timing. Plus, after I read it, I’ll review it on my blog and then donate it to my local library to get even more people to read it! Can’t wait to see what happens next in Ada’s House!

Cindy Woodsmall is a favorite author of mine. I love reading her books. I love reading the amish books. A long time ago, my husband and I took a drive to the amish country and what warm greetings we got from them. They are so friendly and very nice people to talk to. The furniture they make is beautiful and the food is delicious. Its beautiful out there. When we got ready to leave they invited us to come back to see them and as we got on the road, we got behind one of the buggies and the kids waved for us to pass them and they waved to us. So friendly and we waved back at them and wish them a nice day. When I get started reading the amish books I can’t put them down, I enjoy reading them so much. Cindy is a great writer. I will always continue to read her books. Thank you, Sheryl Trumpet
Congratulations to all of the winners!!! I can’t wait to read the new book Cindy!
