"Sometimes it just took getting to know a person - to really know a person - to uncover the good qualities that God graced every creature with."
Very nice book, I recommend it!

Sarah another wonderful story about relationships and true love. I have to laugh because I remember thinking my mother knew nothing about what I would like in a relationship and constantly hooked me up with sons of her friends. Well, as we all find out as we get older mama's know best.
This story about Rachael, Jeremiah, Jonas and Ella Mae is so typical. The twin girls are drawn to the men that they think is best for them but their mothers, especially the sons mother, makes sure that she does everything to match them up with the ones they don't like. Edna knows that each son has a unique gift and personality and after working with the girls for several weeks she knows who will fit with whom. Funny as she sets up the different scenarios for the couples to be together and how they feel about it all. The girls mother knows she wants her girls to be married to Edna's boys but doesn't know how to achieve this except to have her girls work for Edna's company.
This book will bring you laughter, tears and other emotions that are part of reading a great book. It is a great summer, winter, spring or fall read.
I received this book through NetGalley in order to read and review.

A very well written and entertaining book. Good plot and character development. A good clean read. I received an advance ebook from the publisher and this is my unbiased review.

This book isn't in my normal realm of reading. However, I was intrigued and gave it a shot. It was cute! I've always been interested in Amish and this book gave a glimpse into their lives. Even though this isn't my normal read, I may just go back and read this whole series.

Thanks to Netgalley for the chance to read this book before publication.

Good meaning mothers meddle with their sons and daughters to spark romance. Good story, that made me smile and chuckle. Amish romance and was hard to put down. Just wish some cookie recipes would have been included. Otherwise, highly recommend this book and author.

Sarah Price does it again. The final book in the Amish Cookie Club series is here and it is wonderful.

Every week Edna and her three childhood friends get together to bake cookies for the Sunday services in their church districts. What turned into a way to stay in touch soon became a business. Additionally, the four women come up with ways to help their children become the best they can be. This time it's Wilma's twins Rachel and Ella Mae.

Rachel and Ella Mae have been together since birth and have gained a reputation for being tough to work with. Edna needs help with her side business and accepts the twins help. Hopefully, she can teach them a thing or two about working together. Throughout the weeks the girls do get better as well as capture the attention of Edna's sons, Jonas and Jeremiah.

An adorable story about sibling dynamics and staying true to yourself. And how that can lead to the one your meant to be with.

A meddling older Amish woman decides that a friend's daughters would be perfect for her sons. Rachel and Ella Mae are known for being argumentative and competitive with each other. They accept a job working with their mother's cookie club friend, Edna, and her home business of serving dinner to tourists. While their bickering creates a problem, another one exists in Edna's two sons, Jeremiah and Jonas. While Rachel has a crush on Jeremiah and Jonas seems to like Ella Mae, it doesn't seem like the feelings are reciprocated. Edna keeps coming up with excuses to put the couples together, but has she matched the wrong sister with the wrong brother?

A cute romance story of siblings who fall for each other, just not in the way the mothers expect, this is a heartwarming story that Amish romance fans will enjoy.

I have read all of the books in this series and loved each one. This is the third book in the series, however, each can be read independently. They are all so delightful that you will want to read them all to follow this group of Amish ladies who get together every week to bake cookies for their various church charities.

In this one, we find the “Cookie Club” ladies continuing with their matchmaking between one member’s twin daughters, and another members two sons.

This is a delightful mixture of personalities and twists and turns to the plot. Will this matchmaking lead to the end result the mothers are hoping will happen, or will there be surprising results from these interactions?
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Kensington Books through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

The Cookie Club members are back! Baking cookies to sell, catching up on news and plotting a way to get Edna's two sons interested in the twin duaghters of one of her friends. Although thye do get the job done, it is most interesting to see how they get there. A nice taste of a plain and simple life. with a great deal of love andlaughter thrown in.

Edna Esh is playing matchmaker again....this time with her sons and a set of twin sisters. There is some confusion, though, about who should go with whom, and this causes a few funny situations. This is not really a deep read, or one that tackles bigger issues, but is a fun glimpse into two very different sisters who happen to share the same birthday... While part of a series, each of these books most definitely functions as a stand alone.

Edna Esh needs help with her business serving English folks. Her friend Wilma suggest her twin daughters, Rachel and Ella Mae. The problem is the girls constantly bicker with each other. Wilma hopes that her daughters will fall for Edna’s sons Jeremiah and Jonas. Edna isn’t sure about this idea but goes along with it. Let the matchmaking games begin. I really enjoyed this story. You will enjoy the matchmaking efforts of Edna. This book is part of a series but can be read as a stand alone. Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington {Zebra} for the E-ARC. This my own opinion.
