Book Description:
With tourist season about to start, Edna Esh is busier than ever, baking with her Amish Cookie Club friends and running her business serving meals to Englische tourists. You wouldn’t think she’d have time for matchmaking . . .
Edna couldn’t be happier that her new daughter-in-law, Bethany, is pregnant. But Bethany is also her best helper, and morning sickness has her out of commission. Desperate for more hands, Edna accepts a friend’s offer for her twin daughters, Rachel and Ella Mae, to step in. Trouble is, the young women are constantly bickering—except when Edna’s sons, Jeremiah and Jonas, are around . . .
It's soon clear that Rachel has taken a shine to Jeremiah, while Jonas is smitten with Ella Mae. It’s also clear the feelings aren’t reciprocated. But after confiding in the Cookie Club, Edna devises a plan for the pairs to spend more time together. The only problem is it seems to be failing. Yet it appears there’s a grander plan at work—and as nature takes its course, and the MayFest arrives, there’s reason to look forward to the bountiful sweetness of a double wedding come autumn . . .

Vikki’s Musings
Thanks go to the publisher and Net-Galley for the complimentary copy of An Amish Cookie Club Courtshipby Sarah Price for the purpose of reading and reviewing prior to publication. My opinions are my own, and no one has influenced them.
An Amish Cookie Club Courtship is a lovely Amish romance with engaging characters and an enjoyable plot. A pair of twins and two Amish brothers who start out at odds with each other, but love finds its way into their hearts in a most unexpected way.
There are two heroines in this tale. Rachel and Ella Mae, although twin sisters, their personalities are vastly different. Where one is quiet, the other is outspoken. Edna, the brothers’ maam, is determined to match her sons to the twins. Lots of twists and turns going on in this book.
The Brothers also have different personalities. Jonas is a jokester and irritates Rachel in the beginning, but that changes as Edna devises ways for them to spend time with each other. Ella Mae spends time with Jeremiah and discovers he’s much more to her tastes than Jonas.
The mother added a delightful twist to this tale, and I enjoyed the banter between her and the other ladies in their cookie club. There are several humorous moments that had me chuckling. In the end, Edna’s instincts proved right!
If you enjoy Amish romance with a great cast of characters, and a plot that will have you chuckling, then you will find An Amish Cookie Club Courtship a delightful reading experience. Sarah Price has a masterful ability to give her novels an authentic view of Amish life and community. Happy reading!
