An Unlikely Match (The Amish Inn Novels)

Publisher

When sparks fly between a good Amish girl and a hunky member of the Hollywood elite, even matchmaking innkeepers Esther and Lizzie know better than to fan the flames. Evelyn Schrock has dismissed the attempts of every young man in her small Amish community to court her. She's willing to wait for a suitor who shares her curiosities about life and faith. The only reason Jayce Clarkson is in Amish country hefting equipment for his famous father's movie production company is for the paycheck. The homestyle cooking at the Peony Inn is a perk though, as is his friendship with Evelyn Schrock. If Jayce can endure his dad's put-downs for a month, he'll finally be in a position to make a fresh start-somewhere away from the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles and the shadow of his checkered past.To matchmakers Esther and Lizzie, the widowed sisters who operate the inn, Jayce seems like a good man stuck in a life he doesn't want. But the boy isn't Amish, and that leaves far too much room for broken hearts. Despite that, Jayce and Evelyn start to realize that they can't deny their growing attraction. Any path forward seems impossible, and they will have to learn what the future will look like when they leave their fate in Gott's hands.

A return visit for me to The Peony Inn, and the delightful widowed sister's Esther and Lizzie who run the Inn along with some matchmaking.
Now with the arrival of Hollywood and RV's in their yard the sister's are at their breaking point taking care of meals and the Inn and non-stop laundry, they need help!
Grumpy Gus is back, and so is the bickering, but the sisters are so busy. Enter Jayce, who knew a rich Hollywood kid would know how to cook, but that is not all we learn about him and he has a growing friendship with Evelyn Schrock. Jayce likes what he sees about Evelyn's life, but could he forsake two cars, phones, and lots of money for the simple life.
This read kept me page turning, we become immersed in these people lives, their ups and downs, and you may need ear plugs when you meet Rose! With her there is another book coming! Yes!
I received this book through the Publisher Zondervan, and was not required to give a positive review.

The Peony Inn

walmart.com

Beth Wiseman does an excellent job of mixing cultures and making it work for an interesting and cant stop reading story. I was thrilled to revisit The Peony Inn and the fussy sisters Lizzie and Esther. They literally crack me up and when you throw Gus into the mix you have great entertainment value. It was great to delve more into Gus and his background story to understand why he is so grumpy. Add in a production company and Hollywood personalities and you have a clash of cultures but a sweet love story in the making. Jayce is complex and trying to fit into a mold his father has created for him while he longs for a simple lifestyle. You have to root for him and Evelyn and a relationship that seems impossible except for their commonality of faith. I recommend reading book one so you understand the sisters and Gus relationship although it isnt necessary to enjoy the story, but who would want to miss out on such a great series. I highly recommend moving this to your must read pile for the summer. 
I received a complimentary copy from the author/publisher. The honest review and opinions are my own and were not required.

Entertaining From Start to Finish

When I started reading this, I immediately knew that I had read book 1 of this series.  I remembered the very memorable characters from book 1, such as grumpy Gus, Lizzie, Esther.   I was so happy to continue this fun and enjoyable series.  I enjoyed the book because it was a really light-hearted read for me.  There was drama, laughs and so enjoyable.  

I found this heartwarming romance very nice as Amish girl gets to know Enlish boy or "man" as Evelyn never fails to point out.  A page-turning book that will keep you reading till the very end!

I received a complimentary ebook copy of this book, which I highly recommend from NetGalley.  All thoughts are my own.

So enjoyable

An Unlikely Match by Beth Wiseman is the 2nd book in The Amish Inn Novels.  Esther and Lizzie have twelve guests descending on The Peony Inn from Los Angeles.  Lizzie told Esther that the guests are from a produce company with meetings in the area.  It turns out that it is a production company.  They will be staying a month while they shoot a movie nearby.  The ladies are unprepared for the two limousines as well as two large RVs with their loud generators.  It seems that some of the guests are not willing to live without modern conveniences.  Jayce Clarkson meets Evelyn Schrock and is smitten with her.  Evelyn knows that they cannot be, but she is attracted to Jayce.  He is the first man with whom she could envision having a future.  What does God have in store for these star-crossed lovers?  An Unlikely Match can be read as a standalone, but you will be missing out on a cute Amish novel if you do not read A Picture of Love.  I thought An Unlikely Match was well-written with great characters.  I love Esther and Lizzie.  In addition, there is grumpy Gus who surprises you at times.  We get to meet Rose who is Esther and Lizzies new helper.  They need to keep Rose away from sugar and caffeine.  There is one scene with Rose that had me laughing so hard.   An Unlikely Match is a character driven book.  I enjoyed the witty banter.  We get to see the differences between the Englisch and Amish worlds in this story.  Jayce is curious about the Amish.  He asks Evelyn many questions about the Amish and their beliefs.  There are some touching moments in this tale.  I like how faith was incorporated into the story.  It is present and the point is made without it being preachy.  Prayer and the importance of listening for Gods voice are items I gleamed from the story.  An Unlikely Match is one of those stories that you do not want to end.  I am eager for the next book in The Amish Inn Novels.  An Unlikely Match is a delightful Amish tale with septuagenarian matchmakers, a grumpy Gus, an energetic Rose, rain galore, clamorous generators, and mouthwatering meals.

An amusing Amish tale!
