Under bright blue skies, wedding bells ring—fulfilling sweet dreams, impossible wishes, and joyous new beginnings . . .
THE RELUCTANT GROOM
Jennifer Beckstrand
Spirited Suvie Newswenger has three marriage proposals—but not from the man she truly loves. No matter how lonely widower Aaron Beachy is, he seems determined to stay that way forever. Now, with help from his matchmaking great-grandparents, Suvie will do whatever it takes to rekindle Aaron’s hope—and spark happiness for a lifetime.
JOSHUA’S BRIDE
Molly Jebber
Madeline Lehman fears her fiancé’s family will never accept her because of her rebellious sister. She’s postponed her wedding to Joshua Stutzman until they see the truth. But when Maddie adopts her sister’s abandoned baby, can she and Joshua find a way to unite their families through forgiveness as well as love?
A SUMMER WEDDING IN PARADISE
Amy Lillard
Reba Schmucker longs to be a bride. And she knows her mischievous nieces just wanted to help when they “chose” Abel Weaver for her. But he’s the last man in the world she’d ever marry. There’s no way her independence and his stubbornness could ever get along—unless a sudden crisis somehow leads to understanding . . . and love.
My thoughts: A cute story about a girl trying to reinvent herself to be the girl she thinks she should be for a man. Her brother is getting married and the handyman he hired has these beyond wonderful dimples. But she's too bright, too loud, too... everything to attract a good Amish man. So she tries to be something she's not. Sad that girls do that to impress a man, but we all have at one point or another. A SUMMER WEDDING IN PARADISE had a few funny moments and the three little matchmakers are darling. 4 stars
I enjoyed AMISH BRIDES as a whole and enjoyed reading a couple authors that I have read very little of. If you like any of these three authors's books OR if you haven't read any of them before but you love Amish fiction, you'll likely enjoy reading AMISH BRIDES. "I was provided a free copy off Netgalley. All opinions are my own."
