Descripción editorial
Irrepressible Colorado Amish quiltmaker Esther Kiem is delighted to help the four Yoder sisters stitch together their beloved great-grandmother’s birthday quilt…especially when it means putting her matchmaking talents to use!
Infused with her signature humor and heart, award-winning, USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Beckstrand blends quilting, mischief, and matchmaking for the sixth Amish Quiltmaker romance – perfect for fans of Amy Clipston, Wanda Brunstetter, and Linda Byler.
At thirty-two, Ada Yoder is resigned to caring for her three sisters, her ever-impractical father, and their prosperous, but demanding, farm. The last kind of trouble she needs is Enos Hoover claiming that six acres of their land actually belongs to him—and taking steps to prove it. But Ada soon finds that battling Enos' clever strategies is delightfully intriguing—and lighting an impossible spark . . .
Enos is determined to make his mater proud by turning difficult acreage into a successful farm. Legally, he is in the right to reclaim the land from the Yoders. But Ada's hard-working stubbornness and refreshing honesty are proving to be more of an irresistible challenge than an obstacle. Now, can Enos and Ada find enough faith and understanding to reconcile family, duty, and love—and stake their claim on a forever happiness together?
Sometimes the greatest blessings come in disguise . . .
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Beckstrand follows up The Amish Quiltmaker's Unexpected Guest with an upbeat enemies-to-lovers romance. Ada Yoder, 32 and single, has all but resigned herself to a humdrum life taking care of her family's farm in rural Colorado, until handsome stranger Enos Hoover shows up one day and announces that he's bought the neighboring plot of farmland and that six of her acres are actually his. An outraged Ada pitches a tent on the contested land in protest, ignoring her friends' suggestions that the pair might be a match. As their daily chores bring Ada and Enos into regular contact, their arguments give way to moments of connection, with Enos opening up about his troubled childhood and Ada sharing how she had little choice but to take over the bulk of the farm work after her mother's death. But when Ada criticizes Enos's challenging relationship with his mother, it seems unlikely that these two stubborn souls will ever find happiness together. Beckstrand's breezy dialogue adds humor ("How could I hone my camping skills if your stubborn claim to my land didn't force me to camp?" Ada asks) to a plot enriched by colorful characters and the protagonists' imperfect but enduring faith. Sweet and satisfying, this is sure to delight Beckstrand's fans.
