This is a wonderfully written book. I can see why it was made into a movie.

The story touches on so many aspects that you do not generally see in an Amish fiction book and, in my opinion, it's beautifully done.

Serena B. Miller is an exceptional writer and she blends the Amish characters with the English characters seamlessly. It is clear she is quite knowledgeable about her subjects and you feel an instant connection with them.

The story is engaging and intriguing - one that is difficult to put down.

I would love to say I read it in one sitting, that's what I really wanted to do, but I wasn't able to carve out the time. However, I did come back to it every spare second I had.

Now I can't wait to see the movie.

I'm excited to see if the film-makers realize what a gem there already was within the pages or if they try to "Hollywood-ize" the story. Hopefully, since it's being made by Mission Pictures International, they will hold tight to the wonderful message Serena has already written about the healing power of God's Love.

Disclaimer: I received this book free in exchange for an honest review. ( )

Double bonus for me with this novel! First, it's a WONDERFUL addition to the Love Finds You collection, AND it's a GREATtastic Amish novel! It's not your ordinary Amish story....I know,I know. I've said that about other Amish novels and that's true for them, as well, in their own way. This one, though, is a really sweet novel written by an amazing talented lady. Serena B. Miller has a fan for LIFE now!

Set in Sugarcreek, Ohio, Miller takes us on a whirlwind of a ride as we meet Rachel Troyer, a half-Amish woman who is super close with her Amish aunts and protects them, along with their town by being a cop. Things are going good for her and her aunts. That is until Miller introduces us to Joe Matthews and his sweet, adorable, lovable little son, Bobby. I fell in love with that little boy instantly! Not to mention that his dad was a good character for the story, too.

The plot line of Joe Matthews having a mysterious past and moving into the cabin and then the daadi house at Rachel's aunts' Inn was fantastic. Rachel's cautious and protective character really came into view when Joe arrived! But, can she trust him enough around her aunts? And why is he so secretive? Rachel really went into her role when she was running his prints and searching him out!

I absolutely loved the combination of learning to let go of the past, being open and honest, and trusting in God to protect everyone. Miller mixed those up with just the right amount of friendship and love amongst Englishers and Amish, and added just a bit of lightness to the story with sweet Bobby. THAT is what makes up an incredible, heart capturing novel!

So, yes, I highly recommend this book to your already growing collection of Love Finds You novels, or if you don't collect those, I still recommend it for your growing collection of Amish novels! It's a more than 5 star worthy novel that will pull you in, settle you down and make you feel right at home in the midst of a wonderful little town called Sugarcreek! Well done, Serena B. Miller! ( )

The 'Love Finds You' series seems to run hot and cold. Some books are very good while others are unable to hold ones attention. This book has been a pleasant surprise! It grabbed my interest immediately and held it until the last page. The mystery of who killed Grace was not evident until the very end and caught me by surprise.

Serena Miller is able to keep the reader turning pages in this mystery/love story. Her knowledge of Sugarcreek, Ohio and the Old Order Amish lifestyle is evident. ( )
