This last book in the series will bring the story of Veronica's victory to its conclusion.
Midwife-turned-author, Stephanie Schwartz seems to swim seamlessly through cultures, religions, superstitions, raw fear and ecstasy to the first breath of a new baby. She knows how birth works and invites her readers to join her, taking us on a tour to the innermost workings of another world while giving us a rare, intimate glimpse into her daily life. She has five children scattered around the world, grandchildren, and over a thousand babies she calls her own. After writing three books on birth, (published under her married name, Sorensen) and then retiring as a midwife, began her foray into fiction. Thanks to the Pandemic she was able to produce the four novels in the Amish Nurse Series.
