About the book-
A Dash of Love, a Pinch of Hope, and a Whole Lot of Good Cooking
Lovina
Miller should be thrilled. Pinecraft, Florida, has everything a young
Amish woman could ask for: sun, sand, volleyball games, and evening
singings in the park. But Pinecraft lacks the one thing Lovina
desperately wants—a pie shop of her own. She longs for a place to gather
with the community and serve the treat she loves.
A
young carpenter named Noah Yoder strolls into her life and offers a way
to make her dream come true. But before Noah and Lovina can build a
shop—and a life—together, they must each face heartaches from the past.
Is their new love stronger than their regrets?
Find inspiration, romance, and authentic Amish recipes for everyone’s favorite food—pie!
My thoughts-
Not long ago I read Sherry Gore's book about how she has been one of the few people from the outside to join the Amish church. She lives in Pinecraft and I know this book would have a very personal touch to it because of that. My absolute favorite author of Amish fiction is Tricia Goyer. This book to me sounded like a match made in heaven. Made with Love was a cute love story that gives us the opportunity to learn a bit about a different kind of Amish community. Pinecraft residents don't seem to follow the same stringent rules as many of the other Amish communities. This books serves as a reminder that there are Amish communities all over the United States and that each one is unique. In other words, there are Amish people outside of Pennsylvania and Ohio. Anyway, I loved the story! I found Lavina to be an interesting and likeable character. Who can not like someone who's nickname is Love? Lovina and Noah working on her pie shop and learning more about each other was a great story to watch unfold. I also enjoyed the parts of the book where Lovina's mom Ann and her best friend Regina write letters back and forth. There is just something about the written word that gets to me, it's such a personal glimpse into someone's life. As always, my favorite thing about this type of Amish fiction is that at the end of nearly every chapter there is a fantastic Amish recipe just waiting to be cooked! I can't wait to try them all! I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Amish Fiction or has ever dared to dream big!
