Hannah Miller loses her job and her dream of owning her own shop all at the same time. She becomes a nanny for Jake Burkholder. Hannah is also being a matchmaker for him.

Hannah and Jake are great characters. I loved the kids too and all the secondary characters. The story drew me in from the beginning and was hard to put down since I wanted to know how all the situations that cropped up would be resolved. I would definitely be interested in reading future books from this talented author.

This book was Cathy Liggett’s first book with Harlequin Love Inspired . It is a story that reached out and grabbed me in from the first page. The book is about past mistakes and forgiveness. One of the characters had died because of a drug abuse addiction. Yes even the Amish people suffer from this terrible addiction. I loved the characters and the Author’s story line and her writing style that made the story so realistic. This story was about second chance romance and I loved that there are three adorable preschool Amish Children that are a big part of this book. These little ones wrap themselves around your heart from the beginning. It was an easy read and a very moving heart felt story. I loved every minute I spent reading this book.

I highly recommend to readers of Amish Fiction and Love Inspired books.

I purchased a signed copy of this book at an Author’s panel discussion. A review was not requested. All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own.

This was such an enjoyable Amish story with two main characters who clearly had feelings for each other, but were not actually a couple. I loved learning more about these two as they were growing up. They clearly had feelings for each other then, too, but life got in the way and Jake ended up married to their friend, Lily, instead of Hannah. I liked that in Hannah's memories of Lily, even though her heart was hurt that Lily and Jake ended up married, she still cared deeply for Lily and wanted what was best for both of them.

Jake's children were so sweet and were an integral part of the story. They were written very realistically and I liked seeing how much Hannah loved them. They loved her, too. It was clear to pretty much everyone that Jake and Hannah loved each other and that they would make a beautiful family with the children. It simply took awhile for all of that to play out and for Jake to let go of some past guilt he carried around, too.

HER SECRET AMISH MATCH by Cathy Liggett is the delightful, well-written story of Hannah Miller and Jake Burkholder as each is working through their individual problems and how maybe – just maybe – they can be of help to one another.

Hannah is a young woman whose life has never been easy. Orphaned and always trying to fit in or feel accepted, she’s finally found her niche – sewing. She’s been working towards a goal of someday taking over the shop she’s been employed at when the owner retires. Those dreams are dashed when a big chain store moves into town taking away most of their customers. Along with a huge rent increase, it’s the last straw for the present owner making it impossible hang on any longer. She had to let Hannah go as she is forced to close her shop doors. What will happen to Hannah and her aunt now with no income?

Jake lost his wife, Lily, two years ago. He’s now trying to make a living off the farm that was once his parents while taking care of Sarah, almost 6, and Eli and Clara, a set of 4 year old twins. With winter approaching, he knows he’s going to have to find other ways to support his family, but who will watch over his children? He’s not found a nanny that’s worked so far. How can he leave for work and be at home with his children at the same time?

Jake, Lily and Hannah were best of friends growing up. Hannah thought of Lily as not only her best friend, but like a sister. She had once even thought of Jake as more than a friend with hopes of a future together. Then she had to leave to take care of her aunt and things changed. Lily and Jake married and the friendships became somewhat strained. After Lily’s sudden death, Hannah tried to help out Jake as much as she could. However, she’s determined to keep her feelings for Jake hidden because giving in to them would only get her hurt again. She loved caring for the children and doing special things for them growing as fond of them as if they were her own. When Jake was offered his old job back, it seemed like the answer to his prayers. When Hannah lost her job and income, Jake was quick to offer her and her aunt the dawdi house, which she accepted on the condition that he allow her to play matchmaker in order to find a wife and mother for his children. She’s has several successful matches to her credit finding it easier to make matches than think of any romantic thoughts of her own. She readily agreed to watch the children making it a perfect arrangement for them both. Or was it?

Will being around one another every day have old feelings being revived? Can Jake make peace with the past in order to have a future? Will revealing his secrets finally give him freedom? Will Hannah ever find her “place” in life? Will trying to match Jake up with available woman only open their eyes to what is right before them? Will it take three small children to show them that things work in God’s time? Did they miss their time way back when or has their time just begun? Will the hidden truths about the past bring healing and clear the path for a future?

HER SECRET AMISH MATCH is an amazing story of second chances - love thought lost but founding it to still exists. It’s a story woven with a thread of faith, undying love, patience, family, never giving up on one’s dreams and the innocence of little children all crafted in a story that will tug at your heart and have you turning pages hoping for a happily ever after. Cathy Liggett does not disappoint leaving this reader happy and smiling as I finished the last page. Definitely a FIVE STAR book well worth reading and sharing with others on what a wonderful book it is.

I really enjoyed this author's work. Don't think I've read anything else by her before, but will look for others to enjoy!
One reviewer mentioned choppy writing and I think I remembered that, too. I've read several books since finishing this one, so sort of blurry!
Anyway, what I do for sure remember was a lovely story with endearing characters who are trying to do right by the Lord, first, and live their lives uprightly.
I really enjoyed this story! Maybe you will, too!
