Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill is another great story by Jennifer Beckstrand. Anna and Felty are famous for their matchmaking skills, and this time the recipient is their grandson, Bo. Bo is dating Ruth although he has no idea that her twin sister, Omi, has had a crush on him since grade school. The story starts with Ruth convincing Omi to switch places with her for a buggy ride home with Bo, and that is when the problems begin. Thankfully, Anna and Felty are great at romantic problem-solving.

Jennifer Beckstrand is one of my all-time favorite authors. It completely amazes me how she can come up with such new and interesting stories with every book. The characters in this story are very real with real problems and issues, and that makes them even more relatable. Anna and Felty are a true delight, and I never get tired of reading about them and their hilarious antics.

I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Christian fiction or Amish stories. This book is great as a standalone story, but if you haven’t read the previous books in the series, you definitely should.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Kensington Publishing through NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

I can never say enough about Jennifer's books! They are always fun and meaningful. This time I shed a few tears because one of the characters resonated with me. Yep. I am her. The story is about two twin sisters who are both "in love' with the same boy. It also has Felty and Anna who are always hilarious as matchmaking grandparents. I always look forward to Jennifer Beckstrand's books. She is the best and my favorite author!

Whether you’re invested in the huckleberry hill antics or not this is another wonderful book by Jennifer Beckstrand. It can be read alone or as the next books in the series. With so many grandchildren Anna Helmuth is never without some one to match up, her favorite hobby. This book follows Bo and Anna’s quest to marry him off to the right girl. With her husband Felty and some godly wisdom happy ending are bound to happen.

I have read all the books in this series and always look forward to the next, I love Annie and Felty!
This is their grandson Bo's story, but we are reunited with past characters, and given some updates!
Bo is dating Ruth, one of the twins, she is the extrovert, whereas her sister Naomi is much more shy.
There are other differences between the twins, and you soon will be aware of most of them. They do have a lot in common, including like Bo.
There are a lot of life lessons here, and we do journey along to see whom will end up with Bo, but most of all we get to spend time with the Helmuth grandparents!
Now I can't wait for the next grandchild match!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Kensington, and was not required to give a positive review.

Naomi has been in love with her twin sisters boyfriend since the fifth grade. She keeps this a secret. But one night the boyfriend kisses her thinking it is her sister. A whole can of worms is about to be opened. Delightful story.

This book was a tad frustrating for me. Omi (short for Naomi) and Ruth are identical twin sisters. To make a long story short, I'll start with this - Ruth is a selfish, entitled young lady who thinks she is in love with Nebo (Bo for short). Omi has been in love with Bo since fifth grade but hasn't told anyone about it. Omi is a bit on the judgemental side and is generally perfect.
One night Ruth asks Omi to switch places with her and to let Bo Take Omi home and to allow him to think it was Ruth. Ruth just wanted to go and have some fun with a boy who had a car. Bo isn't fooled, and things escalate from there.

What irked me is that Ruth and Omi's parents can't see that things aren't right with the sisters. The other thing that irked me is that Ruth would have been called the "B" word if this hadn't been a religion-based book. Then again, we might also say that Omi has a bit of a stick up her back-side.

But don't despair; things do work out for the best all around with a little help from Fenty and Anna, Bo's grandparents.

Another winning novel for the Matchmakers of Huckleberry Hill!

Another fantastic novel from this author. Charming characters, lots of chuckles and of course those precious matchmakers.

I love Anna and Felty, the eighty something year old matchmakers who only want the best for their single grandchildren. Even if the grandchildren don’t always want the help.
I actually liked the twin aspect in this storyline, it added a different twist which I appreciated.
Overall, this one was a good read and I’d suitable fit readers of all ages.
Thanks to Netgalley for the copy. Opinions are my own.

BLURB
Sensible and cautious, Naomi Coblenz lives to help everyone else be happy—particularly when it comes to her twin sister, Ruth. So Omi certainly can’t admit she’s always loved handsome Bo Helmuth, since he and Ruth have begun courting. To look out for her sometimes-thoughtless sister, Omi even poses as Ruth on a ride home alone with Bo. But it doesn’t take Bo long to see the truth—and really notice Omi for the first surprising, hopelessly-wonderful time . . .

Bo thought he was in love with the vivacious Ruth. But he can’t stop thinking about Omi’s kindness and understanding, especially since she refuses to hurt her sister. And he can’t figure out a way to tell Ruth they aren’t really suited for each other. His only hope is that his ever-resourceful Dawdi and Mammi can help faith guide the way—and at last claim a happy ending for all.

MY REVIEW
Eek! Such a swoony read! I loved that Omi, Bo and Ruth are shown as realistic, relatable people who have flaws and make mistakes, but are trying to do their best as messy fallible humans.

A beautiful story of faith, kindness, honesty, forgiveness, and love, all within the beautiful backdrop of an Amish community.

This story is well written, easily finished in an hour, and just makes you feel all happy and gooey inside.

Thank you to NetGalley for a copy of this book in return for my honest review. This review will also be posted to my Instagram account (@kathleenryderauthor), as well as to my blog (daydreamsinthedesert.com) closer to the release date.

Here comes another fun story that involves the matchmakers, Anna and Felty again. This time there are twins involved and they fall in love with the same man. Will the matchmakers be able to set the situation straight or will it be trouble for everyone? Jennifer Beckstrand writes some of the most fun, fall in love with the characters books and I always enjoy seeing where she is going to take us next.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher. All words are my own.

As always I enjoy my visits back to Huckleberry Hill. It's my home away from home.
I was tickled to see Anna and Felty still at their matchmaking full speed ahead as they say.
Anna brought lots of smiles to my face in this story. Such a loving, kind and enduring woman. Felty too. They're one of a kind.
Rachel and Omi made me want to scream at times. They were too stubborn at times to see what's in front of them. Too much going on between the twins that shouldn't have been.
Where were their parents? Why was it always Omi being the babysitter? I wasn't too happy with that aspect of the story.
The one I felt the most sorry for was Bo Helmuth. Always caught in the middle poor man. But I admired him because he was stubborn too.
Beckstrand did do a wunderbar job of making the characters seem realistic showing their flaws and heartaches or whatever the case a character might be going through.
All in all an ok story that I liked well enough and I will still recommend it to other people.
I'm giving this story 4 stars because I felt that there were some repetitiveness throughout the book.
My thanks for a copy of this book I was NOT required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are my own.

Delightful story as we meet Anna and Felty discussing their many grandchildren and her matchmaking . The sayings in the story brings chuckles and you enjoy your visit with these people once again.
Felty mentioned getting a new hobby, Anna agreed, for him. She was set on making a match for Bo.
To ask a girl to drive her home when courting, a girl then knew he was serious
Ruth was wanting fun while still young, this drove Bo away while Omi was cautious.. They both love Bo now there is hurt feelings between the twins. A story of love and marriage, new beginnings and families.
Series I have enjoyed from the beginning. Given ARC for my voluntary review

I found that Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill to be a delightful addition to Beckstrand's The Matchmakers of Huckleberry Hill series. It is probably among one of my favorites of the series.
Five stars.

Anna and Felty are back again to matchmake for another grandkid. Poor Bo, he thinks he is love with Ruth, but actually finds out he loves her twin sister Omi. Good story, but must admit I didn't like Ruth very much. Still though, enjoyed this one overall and would recommend this sweet romance.

An emotional and heartwarming story

I loved Omi and Bo’s heartwarming, sweet and funny Amish romance. The story will give you all the swoony swoons while also pulling at your heartstrings with all the emotions. This one had me feeling all the feels - laughing, crying, swooning, cringing, teeth gritting, and cheering. Both Omi and Bo (and Ruth) are portrayed as real, relatable people who have flaws and make mistakes, but are really trying to just do their best as messy fallible humans. Omi is an identical twin. She is the kind, quiet and faithful twin while Ruth is the vivacious, impulsive and self-centered twin. Bo is a local man who grew up with Omi and Ruth. Omi has loved him for years but now that he is dating Ruth, she has tried to put her feelings aside. Everything changes and gets messy and painful when Omi reluctantly agrees to pretend she’s Ruth for a buggy ride home and Bo kisses her. It will take faith, divine guidance, kindness, honesty, and matchmaking grandparents to get Bo and Omi to their HEA while honoring and protecting Omi’s relationship with Ruth. The secondary characters, as always with this author’s stories, have dimension and are integral to the storyline which just adds further dimension to the story as a whole. Anna and Felty, Bo’s grandparents, are a hoot. They continue to be my favorite secondary characters in this series. Their love for each other and their efforts to “help” their grandchildren are portrayed with such depth I feel like I know them and since they’re recurring characters they feel like old friends. I especially love that even characters that could be judged as less than, like Ruth, have a redemption arc. The character gets to grow but so does the reader. This was a beautiful story of choice, kindness, grace, forgiveness, and love all within the beautiful backdrop of the Amish community’s faith and lifestyle. The story was well written and included witty dialogue, three dimensional characters who grow, and an engaging storyline as told through sweet moments, laughs, supportive friends and family, missteps, faith, and heart squeezing love.

Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill by Jennifer Beckstrand is book twelve in her The Matchmakers of Huckleberry Hill series.

Twin sisters, Naomi “Omi” and Ruth Coblenz, never dreamed they would fall in love with the same man.

Nebo “Bo” Helmuth knows he has ruined his life by failing for the wrong twin.

Anna and Felty Helmuth have their hands full with another difficult match for a grandchild.

Jennifer Beckstrand adds another humorous installment to the series.She’s created another captivating plot with the dialogue and characters to match. Happily Ever After on Huckleberry Hill is a 5 out of 5 star read that I highly recommend to all readers of chaste romance, especially Christian romance.

My thanks to Kensington Books, Zebra, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy of this book. However, the opinions expressed in this review are 100% mine and mine alone.
