ABOUT THE BOOK

An Amish Quilt Unlocks Secrets from the Past
Welcome to Apple Creek, Ohio, where piano teacher and artist, Andrea Wagner, has a fascination with painting the rural Amish landscapes around her home. She has made it to her thirties feeling like she has had a charmed life and finally has fallen in love with Brandon Prentice, a local veterinarian. But then she discovers she was adopted and all she thought she knew about herself has crumbled. Andrea becomes so fixated on finding her birth mother that she pushes Brandon away, so she writes to the “Dear Caroline” column in the newspaper for romance advice. What will Andrea lose before she finds herself again?

MY REVIEW

I do believe this was my favorite book in this series. Maybe even my most favorite book by Wanda Brunstetter. It had romance, faith, and suspense. The details throughout the book were so unexpected and kept me on my toes wondering what was going to happen next. Not only the suspense of Andrea finding out who her mother was but if she and Brandon were actually going to work things out after she found her birth mother. Speaking of birth mother. I totally didn’t see that coming. This book definitely didn’t disappoint and was a good read!
