5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful series!
Reviewed by Diane Pramberger
“Courting Sadie” is the sixth book in the “Bishop’s Daughter" series. I don’t know how I didn’t read the other books first, and I definitely need to go back and catch up. But Diane Craver did a great job of giving us the backstory for the characters.
Sadie is so excited to plan her wedding to Matthew. But meddling family members, work problems and an old flame threaten her happiness.
I loved this sweet romance and I read it in one sitting. God always has a plan!

I am the only one left from my family. I miss them all and my dad. I will see them again in heaven.

Review of advance copy received from Author
5 *****
What would you do if your soon-to-be mother-in-law didn’t like you and preferred that her son married your sister?

Maggie Kauffman loves Simon Wittmer and can’t wait to marry him. But Simon was once briefly engaged to Maggie’s older sister, Elizabeth, and Simon’s mother still favors his first fiancée. How can Maggie live with a woman who clearly dislikes her? How can she win the woman over before her marriage?

Shortly before the wedding day, Magie hears a rumor that Simon was spotted in a restaurant with Elizabeth. Has he changed his mind and would rather marry Elizabeth after all? Should Maggie call off the marriage, or will she hear Simon out and trust him again?

Maggie’s May Song is a wonderful story that any inspirational romance fan will thoroughly enjoy. Diane Craver skillfully describes Amish life, customs, and beliefs during the course of the story to provide the reader with context. Her characters are well-developed and believable. She expertly combines elements of romance and faith in a fast-paced story of trust, forgiveness, family dynamics, and starting over.

Carve out some reading time in your day because you won’t want to put the book down once you begin. Thank you, Diane Craver for writing such an uplifting and entertaining story.

A Great Read - A Tide Worth Turning!

I loved reading this story by Beth Wiseman. I have read many of her Amish books and enjoyed them. This is a sweet story about a mother and daughter becoming better and more understanding once the daughter learned about her parents' marriage. Then the mother and daughter meet their soul mates. However, the men have secrets. I kept wondering what the men were hiding from Addison and her mother, Lee Ann. There are two settings in this story - historic Galveston, Texas, to the beaches of Australia.
