Ava Deitweiler missed her friend Rosa who had disappeared without contacting anyone in a year. Ada was working at the greenhouse when she saw Rosa's former boyfriend Ephraim purchase a hanging basket of petunias for his mothers' birthday. As they were talking, Ephraim asked Ada to come over for cake for his mothers' birthday. Ephraim was visiting his parents home as he was helping his grandmother in Lancaster as she was elderly and had issues living on her own.

Ada was glad to visit a friend, but Ephraim was not highly thought of because he was Rosas' boyfriend and they had an extremely loud fight on the night of her disappearance. Rosas' brother Norman suspected that Ephraim was responsible for her death even though he claimed his innocence.

Then Ada heard a rumor.....

A wonderful story of live, misunderstandings and forgiveness. Ada and Ephraim's story is heartwarming and very relatable.

This is the second book in this series. I was fortunate enough to also read the first. This continues the story. Branstetter is a fantastic author of Amish romance. She adds mystery, jealousy, and other elements that really make the book fun. In this second book we still don’t know what happened to Ada when she disappeared. Life has been moving on but not all of her family and friends are willing to let it go without answers.

Loved reading the inspirational and awesome story. Ada has feeling for Ephraim, and she’s willing to spend time with him even if it’s just as friends. Read the highly recommended, wonderfully written, and a must read riveting story.

I really enjoyed this Amish romantic mystery read; I literally devoured the entire thing in a single sitting. I love Amish romance, and this didn’t disappoint.

The characters were likeable, the plot solid, and the mystery intriguing without overshadowing the other plot threads.

Thank you to NetGalley for a copy of this ARC in return for my honest review..

I am absolutely loving this series! Book 1 had friends and family searching for Rosa. Now, in book 2, they are figuring out how to move on with their lives more than a year later while still holding out hope for her return. What could easily be a dark topic remains hopeful as Rosa’s loved ones seek love and peace amidst the unknown, relying on help from God and each other. I am dying to get my hands on book 3, coming out in late summer 2025, to solve the rest of this puzzle. Wanda Brunstetter has brought Amish fiction to a new level with the Mifflin County series, and I know somehow things must turn out right for the Petersheim family in the end. For a unique Amish mystery by one of the best Christian fiction writers out there, start with book 1 and do not miss this amazing romantic trilogy.

I always enjoy reading Wanda Brunstetter’s books, especially when they are in a series. This is the 2nd book in the Mifflin County mystery series. I was drawn in from page 1 because after reading the 1st book. The Protector, I was anxious to see if Rosa, the young Amish lady who went missing, was ever found. It does help if you read the first book so you become familiar with the characters. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book. This is a must read for sure!

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

I didn’t realize when I started The Peacemaker by Wanda E Brunstetter that it was the second book in a the Mifflin county mystery series. Mrs Brunstetter did a wonderful job filling you in on the characters so you weren’t lost but I still want to go back and read the first one. In this book Ava’s best friend Rosa Petersheim is still missing and her boyfriend Ephraim was under suspicion since he was the last one to see her and they fought before her disappearance. Ava has always been in love with Ephraim. Will she get a chance with him? Will he notice her or will she always be just Rosa’s best friend? Thank you NetGalley, the author Wanda E Brunstetter, and Thomas Nelson Fiction for the Arc book. This is my honest review!

Will they ever find out what happened to Rosa? I sure hope so!
Meanwhile, this sweet love story will keep you invested in Ada and Epherim. I loved them both honestly.
The one I didn’t like was Ben. I knew from the get go that he was trouble. He’s what made me keep turning the pages. He definitely didn’t disappoint.
I simply couldn’t put this book down.
I love Wanda Brunstetter. Ever since A Woman of Courage.
I truly delight in her stories and today was a good day to curl up and enjoy this one. Just finished it too!! Can’t wait for the next one.
5 stars from me. I loved every second of it and I highly recommend it.
My thanks for a copy of this book. I was NOT required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are mine

This is another winner from Wanda E. Brunstetter. When I see the cover and who wrote it I don’t even have to read the description. If you are looking for an Amish book with great characters then you will want to pickup a copy.

I received an arc copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. If I could rate this book more than 5 stars, I definitely would give it more. This author never disappoints. Even though I read so many books between the new one in the series, I easily catch up on everyone and the storyline. Wanda Brunstetter is able to do this without being repetitive. I cannot wait until the next book in the series. Thank you to the publisher for granting me an ARC!

Once again, Wanda Brunstetter knocks it out of the park. From page one, I was hooked into the lives of Ada and Ephraim. Their precious courtship with some twist and turns thrown in. Wanda also adds a touch of mystery to this book, while making her readers hang on to each word. You will not regret taking the time to read this book and enjoy the lives of those living closest to Ada and Ephraim, while being worried about their safety!! I love how Wanda also has the ability to bring back stories from her past books to keep you up to date on what's happening!

A sweet Amish romance. A quick read and a nice way to spend time wrapped up in a quilt while the snow falls outside. Would recommend
