An Amish romance "full of kind, sincere characters struggling with the best ways to stay true to themselves and their beliefs."—Publishers Weekly

With one of their grandchildren happily married, Anna and Felty Helmuth are ready for their next matchmaking success. Because there's nothing more rewarding than sparking unexpected love—and putting Huckleberry Hill, Wisconsin, on the map for romance . . .

Cautious to a fault, Lily Eicher strives to live up to her dat's high standards. She's certainly not the kind of proper Amish girl who would make time for someone as impetuous as the Helmuths' grandson, Aden—even if his lively spirit and caring ways are showing her just how wonderful following her heart can be . . .
Recklessly doing the right thing got Aden into big trouble. A fresh start at his grandparents' is just what he needs. And shy, pretty Lily is turning his world upside down and making him want to prove he can do good within the rules. But now both must find enough faith and understanding to risk pursuing their dreams—together . . .

"There is plenty of humor in this series as well as delicious romance, conflict, and character growth . . . Jennifer Beckstrand's writing is simply beautiful, ranging from at times humorous and uplifting to emotional and melancholy."—Amish Reader

"The characters that people the Huckleberry Hill books are many and delightful. There is a goodness and innocence about them, but that is not to say they are all perfect or that there is no conflict in the plot."—Romance Reviews Today

      Beckstrand’s solid second novel set in the small Wisconsin town of Huckleberry Hill (after Huckleberry Hill) is a strong example of the Amish romance genre. When environmental conservationist Adem Helmuth feels God calling him back to his Amish roots, he and Pilot, his giant, furry dog, move in with his matchmaking grandmother. She’s determined to pair Aden up with Lily Eicher, the ferociously obedient youngest daughter of a man who has no place for a son-in-law with a checkered past. Worse, Lily already has a suitor: the sincere, progressive son of the community’s bishop. As Lily learns to overcome her fear of Pilot and Aden’s reckless ways, Aden must learn to temper his passion with his devotion to his community. And they have to do it before Lily gives in to her father’s wishes and marries somebody else. Beckstrand’s straightforward story is full of kind, sincere characters struggling with the best ways to stay true to themselves and their beliefs. Agent: Mary Sue Seymour, Seymour Agency.
