Synopsis

When it comes to matchmaking, Huckleberry Hill, Wisconsin’s unstoppable octogenarians Anna and Felty Helmuth never seem to run out of opportunities—or grandchildren...

Reuben Helmuth is plenty bitter. John King, his best friend—or so he thought—is engaged to the girl Reuben loved. Humiliated, Reuben flees from Ohio to his grandparents’ home on Huckleberry Hill, where he knows he’ll find comfort. He’s enjoying wallowing in his misery—until John’s sister, Fern, shows up. She won’t stop pestering Reuben about forgiveness—or trying to help him find love again. Yet Fern's efforts only reawaken Reuben’s long-buried feelings—for her…

With her brother too ashamed to face Reuben, it’s fallen to Fern to help mend fences. But as she and the Helmuths do all they can—even organizing a knitting club event filled with eligible girls—it may take one more challenge to inspire Reuben to forget his heartache, recognize his own blunders, and embrace the true love that’s right in front of him…


My Review

I just love the determination and creativity of Anna in matching up her grandkids! I loved Fern, but Reuben was a bit difficult to have compassion for. He really took feeling sorry for yourself to a whole other level. Just leave it to Anna to shake up his life for a much-needed wake-up call! The poor knitting club... As always, I was chuckling at the antics while enjoying the character growth as Reuben and Fern shift from pesky friends and unrequited love to deeper feelings that lead to true romance. This series is a must-read for fans of Amish romance!
