Description in my words …
Two people who are struggling to feel comfortable in their new circumstances. Martha Eicher took care of her widowed father & two sisters. Now all are married and she no longer feels enjoyable living with her dad and new wife. Even her best friend is getting married in a week. She feels like a fish out of water. Asher Lantz, a bachelor, now father to his niece & three nephews, is struggling to balance taking care of the farm, workshop AND four preschoolers.

Asher needs someone to take care of the children and his home. Martha needs to move away from home. And you guessed it, Martha steps in to help. Asher feels awkward … until he doesn’t.

My review …
I am SO late with this review … there were reasons why I couldn’t complete it before its publication date of 25 Apr 2023. This is the third in the ‘Hope’s Haven’ series; I reviewed book 2, Her Amish Springtime Miracle, last year for NetGalley.

Her Amish Patchwork Family is beautifully paced. Engaging throughout the read. I finally got this book read in November. The characters are rich and their actions — even when you don’t like them — are in keeping with the plot and scene. Asher certainly did have his hands full with four preschoolers as well as his other commitments. Martha having been a schoolteacher knew how to corral four little ones. Personally, I think I would be hairless.

If you haven’t read Her Amish Patchwork Family, add it to your reading list. Tell Santa. This is a lovely read. While this is book 3 of a series, it can stand alone. And, by the way, I have added the author Winnie Griggs to my fav Amish authors list.

What got my attention was the cover and I knew I had to read it. It was such a great book and if you love to read Amish books then this one is for you!

I highly recommend this book.

I received a copy from Netgalley fir my honest review

Loved this book, the first I've read by Winnie Griggs! Her characters are so real, flawed and bumbling as they figure out relationships, just like real life. I felt like I had new friends when I finished reading and hope they show up in a subsequent book. I enjoyed the glimpse into Amish life.

*****I received this free from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

What a lovely story of family, friends and love. Navigating through muddy times in the past in order to come out the other side better for the future!

This is a typical, beautiful Amish romance story. A must read!

This is a charming romance that takes you away from the worries of life. I love seeing the relationship change between Martha and Asher from cordial to friendship to love. The four children add more charm. I also love that Martha had another option for life. I love this story and will look for more books by this author. I received a free copy of this ebook from the publisher through Netgalley. This is my honest and voluntarily given review.

Martha and Asher have a history of teacher and student. A lot has changed since then. Martha is the caregiver for all it seems. Asher is the caregiver to 4 orphaned children and his grandmother. Asher has a grudge toward Marth for something he does not realize is not her fault at all. He will need her help to hold his house hold together. Martha is looking to have a marriage and family of her own. She has started corresponding with a man she met at her best friends wedding. He seems have all the boxes checked for future. Things are do not always work out the way we think. She starts to have feeling she did not think she would have But she cannot help but fall for whole family. There are a lot of things to overcome before she finds her happy ending.. Relationships though complicated will work in the time they are meant to. I hope you enjoy the story as much as I have.

HER AMISH PATCHWORK FAMILY is the third book I’ve read by Winnie Griggs. It is the third book in the Hope’s Haven series and I loved every minute of it. She grabbed me right away, from the very first page and she never let me go. Martha volunteers to take care of Asher’s family when his hired nanny breaks her arm. Asher and Martha have history together. She was very good friends with Asher’s brother, Ephron. They went on a trip together when they were younger and Ephron never came back! Asher blames Martha for his brother jumping the fence and leaving Amish life. Now I’m kicking myself for not making time to read her previous books! More importantly, I really love the lessons I learned. What we think we want isn’t always what we really want. Home is where the heart is. All those lovely cliches that make us keep reading sweet, clean romances. HER AMISH PATCHWORK FAMILY is very enlightening and filled with love, respect, trust, and forgiveness.

HER AMISH PATCHWORK FAMILY is a very captivating story and will have you flipping the pages quickly to see what happens. I was instantly caught up in the story of Martha Eicher and Asher Lantz. Asher is the guardian of his niece and her three brothers who are triplets, after the death of their parents. To say that Asher is over whelmed would be a huge understatement. Oh, I forgot to mention that Martha was Asher’s teacher when he was in school. He had a crush on her back then like some boys get in grammar school. When I finished reading this wonderful story I was happy and sad at the same time. The story was great but I wasn’t ready to leave all of the strong, caring characters. HER AMISH PATCHWORK FAMILY is like a big bar of Godiva chocolate, you want to devour the whole thing at once but you know you will get more pleasure by savoring each chapter. This is a carefully woven story of two lovely people who have truly loved and suffered loss.

HER AMISH PATCHWORK FAMILY is filled with twists and turns and had me swiping the pages way too late one night to finish! I had to know where Winnie Griggs was taking us and what would happen to all the people in this wonderful community. I love how Martha moves in with this family and takes over their crazy and chaotic lives. Asher starts to see Martha in A whole new light. She wins over the children as well as Asher. There is so much heart in Winnie’s writing that I was left with a huge smile on my face and my heart very happy. All of the characters are very interesting and believable, so much so that I felt as if I’ve known them for a long time. Fans of Amish fiction will love this book!

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Forever and Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Her Amish Patchwork Family was such a joy to read! I loved the tension between the two main characters. Martha stepped up and gave of herself to help Asher’s family, even though there had been a misunderstanding years earlier which caused the rift between herself and Asher. I liked seeing the way the two of them grew to trust each other and respect each other.

The children in the book felt very realistic for their ages and it was fun to see how well they responded to Martha’s love and guidance. I also liked the age aspect between Asher and Martha. Asher was four years younger than Martha, which sometimes made Martha question the romantic notions she was feeling toward Asher, even though they were both in their twenties. It was fun to see Martha realize that Asher was a grown, responsible man and father figure to his niece and nephews. It helped her to begin to see him in a new way, as a love interest.

Even though this is book three in the Hope’s Haven series, you can jump in and read this story even if you haven’t read the other two before it.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

What a lovely, heartwarming story! I was immediately transported into this time and the characters were extremely well written and easy to love.

Martha is at a crossroads in life. With her dad and best friend both newly married and starting new lives, she's not sure where her place is in the world. When two opportunities come her way--a chance to correspond with a nice man looking for a wife and the sudden need of a neighbor family for a nanny--maybe she can find a new life and purpose for herself.

Martha is a kind and well-intentioned person and it's easy to root for her happiness. Asher is also a good and thoughtful man who is open to learning and can admit when he is wrong. I really appreciated that they weren't always perfect. They both had insecurities, misjudgments, and moments when they weren't at their best. It's a joy to watch both of them grow and see each other, and themselves, with new eyes. Fans of Amish romance will enjoy this sweet tale rooted in faith and family.

Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review!

Asher has his hands full with running a farm, taking care of his grandmother, and raising his niece and three nephews! When his nanny gets married and the new nanny breaks her arm, Martha takes over as nanny for six weeks. Unfortunately, Asher and Martha share some unpleasant events of the past, so the situation can be awkward at best. As Martha demonstrates her competence and the kids come to love and depend on her, Asher is faced with some difficult decisions. Will love find a way around those obstacles?

Readers who enjoy fiction books about Amish people will find this to be an enjoyable, albeit predictable, journey into Amish country. Books featuring dogs and cute preschoolers will find a home and melt the hearts of many readers. This is a clean read, without descriptive intimacy, violence, or strong language. The Christian message is clear but not preachy. I enjoyed seeing the give and take between Asher and Martha, and how they resolved their differences. Although this is part of a series, it works as a standalone novel.

I received this book from the publisher and from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The opinions expressed here are mine alone.

A wholesome, warm hearted book.
Martha Is no longer the head of her father’s household and become a nanny for Asher, who is now the parent for his niece and nephews. Sparks fly between the two but can they realize they make a good team?
I’ve always liked Amish fiction since I live in the proximity to Amish communities. I loved the patchwork discussion and fabric.
The cover art is precious.

Asher had a crush on his Assistant teacher in school who also was very good friends with his brother. They even went to visit the English during their Rumspringa together and his brother did not return with her.

Asher resented Martha for taking his brother to the English so for twelve years he tried to avoid her and not have anything to do with her.

Then his other brother and his wife died, so now Asher is responsible for his grandmother and his brother's four toddlers. He hires a Nanny who gets hurt and Martha steps into the role of Nanny to help him out.

Loved the book

I loved this book so much.
I was immediately pulled into this wonderful, heartwarming story.
A story about family, faith and forgiveness.
The characters are so endearing that you can’t help but fall in love with each and every one of them.
The authors writing flows effortlessly and keeps you engaged throughout the story.
Highly recommended reading.
Many thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for the opportunity to read this book for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

Martha has been a helper since the death of her mother. She took care of her father's home and helped raise her two younger sisters. All three have married now. After being away helping a cousin with a newborn she is back at her childhood home and feeling out of sorts. She isn't needed any more.

Asher has a lot on his shoulders. He isn't very comfortable having Martha back in town. He knows it isn't proper to hold hard feelings for another person, but it will take God to help him change.

I really like the characters in this story. They are all good people with human weaknesses; misunderstanding, immaturity and shyness to name a few. Author Winnie Griggs has developed a good storyline which can give a reader a feeling of anticipation. Will Martha give up on love and marry for a home and husband or will she stay near her family? I received the advanced reader's copy of the book from the publisher through NetGalley and this is my own unsolicited opinion. I read it in less than 24 hours as it was hard to put down. It works as a stand-alone, but I hope to read the other books in this series.

Her Patchwork Amish Family by Winnie Griggs is a sweet Amish story. We are taken to Hope’s Haven where Martha Eicher volunteers to help Asher Lantz when his new nanny breaks her leg. Asher is the guardian of his niece and triplet nephews after the death of their parents. Asher is reluctant to accept Martha’s help because he blames her for is brother going Englisch. With no one else available, Asher reluctantly accepts Martha’s help. Will time and proximity heal the rift between them? I enjoy Winnie Grigg’s writing style. It makes the story easy and pleasing to read. I like the characters and the setting. I enjoyed getting to know Martha Eicher and Asher Lantz. Asher’s grandmother is a sweetheart. The three children (Asher’s niece—Lottie and three nephews) are endearing. The triplets are extremely active and mischievous (Zeke, Zeb, and Zack). Martha’s former teaching experience helps her in dealing with the children. She can see what the four kids need (structure, discipline, and love). In the story, we get to see how a mistaken belief (or a lie) can harm people and relationships. I like that we get a glimpse of life in an Amish household. There are daily chores that need to be accomplished. I liked how Martha taught the children how to do their chores. We also get to see how Amish traditions are passed on to the next generation. It turns out that Asher and Martha have a lot in common. Asher has cared for Martha since he was a student. Martha worries about the four-year age difference and the fact that she was once Asher’s teacher. I enjoyed reading this charming, wholesome story. While Her Patchwork Amish Family is the third book in the Hope’s Haven series, it can be read as a standalone. We do get to catch up with Greta and Noah as well as Hannah and Micah. I appreciated the humor in the story. Her Patchwork Amish Family has forgiveness, love, family, friendship, and faith. Her Amish Patchwork Family is a touching tale with an injured nanny, energetic triplets, a mud mishap, courting correspondence, a timid miss, a past misapprehension, and an insightful Gott.

I absolutely loved reading this book! It's a sweet Amish romance that will touch your heart. If you are a fan of Amish romance grab this book, you will love it!
