In USA Today bestselling author Amanda Flower's second Amish Matchmaker Mystery, Millie Fisher has plenty to keep her busy through her golden years, whether it's minding a pair of rambunctious goats, meetings with her quilting circle, and matchmaking. But the witty widow always makes time to solve the odd murder... Some Amish men don't know what's good for them. That's what Millie Fisher told herself when young Ben Baughman set his heart on marrying Tess Lieb. With Tess' father refusing to give his blessing and Tess' ex-boyfriend being a wet blanket, the hapless couple was bound to butt heads more than Millie's Boer goats. But when Ben tragically dies in a mysterious fire, Millie wonders if someone in her hometown of Harvest, Ohio wanted Ben out of the wedding picture altogether... With the help of her quilting buddies, and her outspoken Englischer friend Lois, Millie is determined to patch together all the clues without even dropping a stitch. She only hopes it won't be the death of her...
Praise for Courting can be Killer
The use of Millies matchmaking intuition in the murder investigation brings a refreshing edge to the cozy Amish genre, and Flower combines quirky characters, close-knit community, and first-class sleuthing to great effect. Fans of Amish mysteries will love this.
Publishers Weekly
There is nothing cozier than the second Amish Matchmaker Mystery; its filled with silly animals, including two Boer goats and a pig. However, the mystery itself is well plotted and will appeal to fans of Flowers Amish Candy Shop mysteries, set in the same community with crossover characters.
