Resourceful Colorado Amish quiltmaker Esther Kiem has her hands full with husband, home, and a baby on the way. But putting her skills to the test for an outspoken niece who's running for town council is a matchmaking challenge she can't resist. Infused with her signature humor and saturated with heart, award-winning, USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Beckstrand blends quilting, mischief, and matchmaking for the third Amish Quiltmaker romance - perfect for fans of Charlotte Hubbard, Wanda Brunstetter, and Linda Byler. Mattie Zook always stands up for what's right--which is why she's been exiled from her Pennsylvania Dutch home to her Aunt Esther's farm. Outraged at local discrimination against the Amish, she's using her rumschpringe to run for town council. Esther can only hope that sensible local farmer Freeman Sensenig will help Mattie--and keep her from going too far. But Mattie is soon finding her new campaign manager all too appealing . . . Freeman never thought that the standoffish, opinionated Mattie would care so much about others. Even more amazing, their differences are somehow making her campaign successful--and have him hoping for more of a future with her. But unexpected obstacles and a sudden romantic rival will put their growing closeness to the test--and give them only one chance to truly reconcile their hearts . . .
This is an Amish Fiction. and this is the third book in the Amish Quiltmaker series. I really love the main character in this book, and I love to have a book that has an Amish character that stands up from themselves. I know that is not the Amish way, but I know chances are there are some that do. I found this story to be so much fun to read, and I really love the mix of characters. I really laugh and smile several times while reading this book. There is a small romance part at the end of this book, but I would not say this is romance. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
