Match Made at the Amish Inn

Sometimes love is what you need. Even if it’s not what you want.

Running the local Amish inn is the only reason Molly Esch has gained back her confidence after being jilted at the altar. When the owner is suddenly injured, Molly’s sure she’ll be promoted. Except the owner asks her widowed nephew, Aaron Fisher, for help instead. Now Molly’s forced to work alongside the handsome single father, and with his grand ideas for change, they clash right away. But their disagreements soon give way to something deeper. Neither wants to risk their heart again, but facing their fears could lead them to a forever partnership…

My Review:

I do so love the way Marta Perry spins a tale – a whirlwind of love and laughter with just enough angst to keep things interesting.

Molly and Aaron fit the opposite attracts mold to perfection. She’s the sweet, outgoing, has never met a stranger type while he’s more of a brooding introvert. It’s only natural that there’s some clashing of wills when they are thrown together working at the inn. And it doesn’t help that Aaron’s convalescing aunt has matchmaking on the mind. Gotta love a devious Amish matchmaker.

Of course, things don’t go according to plan as Molly and Aaron’s love story takes on a life of it’s own much to my reader’s delight. First comes the uneasy truce, and then a friendship of sorts, but when their stubbornness gets in the way things start to get complicated.

Captivating secondary characters add to the charm of this sweet romance as does the whole Amish community. Love the way the author weaves every last detail into an emotionally satisfying story.

I listened to the audio edition of ‘Match Made at the Amish Inn’, narrated by Maayan Voss who did a wonderful job breathing life into these characters through her engaging performance.

My thanks to Harlequin Audio and Net Galley for providing me with an audio edition of this book.

  3. Do enjoy this author’s books immensely. MATCH MADE AT THE AMISH INN sounds exactly what I’d expect from him and a fabulous read. And who doesn’t love a meddling matchmaker (except the one they are trying to match up)! It’s on my TBR list. After reading your review, I’m more excited than before at the prospect of reading it. I’ve got to see if I can move it way up the list.

  4. Thanks for the great review, Kav! I have a few of Marta Perry’s books saved on my Kindle. I really like the contrast between the Amish buggy & the lovely mansion (turned inn?) on the cover. Reminds me of the plantation houses in SC, especially in Charleston. Have a wonderful weekend! Hope it’s warming up some for you.

    1. Ha! Warmth — such a fleeting concept. We had it for two days, went up to 3. Glorious, even though it was raining. Now we’re back into subzero temps because…why not? lol I always wanted a house with a wrap around porch — that inn just might be my dream home! Happy Reading!

      1. Ugh, sorry. We’re supposed to be in high 70s next week. We just skip Spring here & go right on. 🥵 Our friends/neighbors next door bought their house solely bc she wanted a wrap around porch. Her hubby said she’s never even sat on it. 😮 Me & my books would live there!!! lol

      2. Yikes! What a waste of a wrap around porch! I would live on it — even in the winter! I’d create different kinds of seating areas too. Always wanted one of those wicker basket swing chairs and, of course a row of Muskoka chairs in rainbow colours for when visitors stop by. 🙂

      3. Ooh, sounds delightful & colorful! You’d love our back patio. We have wicker furniture w/ multi-colored pillows, palm trees, & a vast array of potted plants & hanging flower baskets in the spring. Since it’s still technically winter it’s rather barren back there atm. We usually don’t put palm trees or flowers out there till we’re sure we don’t have another freeze. I agree. What a waste of a wrap around porch.

    1. I think my favourite are the mysteries she wrote within the Amish community but the main characters weren’t Amish…two series, I think. They had a bit of a Goth-y vibe to them as well. So good. Happy Reading, Cindy!
