Their Secret Courtship by Emma Miller

 

Two neighbors meet, become friends and maybe more?  They have lots of common interests and as their friendship deepens, they come to the realization that Bay's Amish mother who wants her married to a good Amish man, will not agree to a relationship with someone outside of their family faith.  When the unexpected happens decisions need to be made.  Will this make or break their friendship?

This was a really good read and quite an emotional twist towards the end.  I have to say, I loved this book and am so happy that I finally read this book that had been in my to-read book drawer since 2022!  I guess I was busy!  Since it was a book that I really enjoyed, I recommend it to Amish book lovers.  It was a good one.

Secret in an Amish Garden by Lenora Worth

This was a book published in 2022.  I had purchased it and finally had time to read it.  It was a nice story of two people that came together as Jeb came to town, not telling others of his past and his connection to the village and the people.  It was a story of redemption, hope and love.  There were some slower sections and the end kind of surprised me at that point and had more action and all came together at that time.  I enjoyed the read.

It is a sweet story and I enjoyed reading this book.  It is a book I purchased several years ago and that has sat in my drawer for all that time.  I am happy I read it!  Very nice book!
