Book Overview

Book 3 in the Creektown Discoveries series

An Artist Seeks Her Birth Mother

Welcome to Apple Creek, Ohio, where a piano teacher has a fascination with painting the rural Amish landscapes around her home.

Andrea Wagner has made it to her thirties feeling like she has had a charmed life and finally has fallen in love with Brandon Prentice, a local veterinarian. But then she discovers she was adopted--and all she thought she knew about herself has crumbled. Andrea becomes so fixated on finding her birth mother that she pushes Brandon away.

A friend suggests Andrea write to the "Dear Caroline" column in the newspaper for romance advice, and she finds herself revealing her issues with being adopted in the letter. "Dear Caroline" receives the letter but struggles to find the right advice given her own conflicted past.

What will Andrea lose before she finds herself again?

Clean Romance

This is a Clean Romance, and this is the third book in the Creektown Discoveries series. One of the main characters in this book drove me totally crazy. Andrea in this book acted like a total baby, and I just wanted to yell at her to grow up. Because, I really did not like one of the main characters of this book made me not like this book. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.

Wonderful Book; Highly Recommend!

Wanda's Amish fiction series are hard to beat, and this 3rd book in the Creektown Discovery series did not disappoint! What's unique about this series is that it blends Amish and Englisch (non-Amish) characters in a heartwarming way. Although I highly recommend reading the first two books in this series (The Walnut Creek Wish and The Sugarcreek Surprise), it is not crucial for you to have read them in order to appreciate and love this book. Orley and Lois Troyer own Memory Keepers, an antiques store in Walnut Creek, Ohio. Not only do they love antiques, but they also love helping people who are having struggles in their life and who are in need of sound, Godly advice. Orley and Lois counsel customers who happen to come into their store and feel the need to share, which is how the Amish and Englisch connect in these stories. In this book, we catch up with characters we know from the other Creektown Discovery books, and we're introduced to new characters, too: mainly Andrea Wagner, a local artist and piano teacher, and Brandon Prentice, a local veterinarian. Andrea and Brandon are planning their future, when a life-changing event from the past comes to the surface and things start to fall apart. This past event draws the new characters to the Troyers in an unbelievable and heartwarming way, as they offer counsel, prayers, and sound advice. The connections between and among the characters in the book and the way the story wraps up leaves the reader smiling for sure. This book was provided to me by Barbour Publishing.
