The Amish Quiltmaker's Unlikely Match by Jennifer Beckstrand


The title was definitely an appropriate one, as the unlikely match was indeed unlikely.  As Mary starts her quilt design, called the Drunkard's Path, she has no idea that something will quickly change life as she knows it.  A handsome drunken driver crashes onto the family's property and into the barn.  Mary helps in his rescue and as he offers to pay for all damages, Mary's father feels it more important to have him learn a lesson than to simply have him pay for the damages.  So handsome Clay begins his time as barn repairman.  No one of the family knowing who this man really was.  

There are lots of twists and turns as a sweet romance starts between Mary and Clay.  As Clay becomes accustomed to the family, he also becomes a close friend.  As unexpected things start to occur, Mary finds out there is more to this man.  

I really enjoyed this read and there was some humor, as is typical for this author, but there is also lots of drama.   Each character grows in their own ways in the story and it is nice to see the changes that take place.  I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher.  All thoughts are my own.
