Marriage Can Be Mischief (An Amish Matchmaker Mystery #3) by Amanda Flower

Millie Fisher may be widowed, but she leads a full life in her Amish hometown of Harvest, Ohio. There’s her quilting circle, her Boer goats, her gift for matchmaking—and the occasional murder . . .

Millie is happy that her childhood friend, Uriah Schrock, has returned to Harvest after decades away. He was sweet on Millie in their school days, but she only had eyes for her future husband. Now, there’s a new spark between them, so Millie is concerned when Uriah doesn’t show up at the Harvest concert series—or for his job as the Village square’s groundskeeper. Perhaps Millie has been involved in too many murder investigations, but she has a sinking feeling. And when she and her best friend, Lois, find Uriah with the police, it seems she’s right . . .

A film crew is in Harvest to make a movie about a forty-year-old unsolved murder. A skeleton has been found at the bottom of a ravine—and Uriah is certain it’s his sister, Galilee. Right before Uriah left Ohio, she disappeared, and her harsh husband, Samuel, was found fatally stabbed with a knitting needle. The sheriff declared that Galilee killed him and ran away. Uriah never believed the theory, and he’s come back to Harvest hoping, Gott willing, Millie will help him stitch together the truth . . .

My thoughts:

This series by Amanda Flower is truly delightful.  This is the third book in the series, and I suggest that they be read in order, just because you can familiarize yourself with these fun characters.  Millie and Lois are back in action as they find themselves involved in year another investigation.  These two ladies are hilarious, sweet and fearless which is why I love them.

I have had a soft spot for Uriah Schrock throughout the series, if you didn’t already know, this series is a spinoff of the authors Amish Candy Shop Mystery series, characters will appear in both series.  I love the history between Millie and Uriah and hope they will have the happily ever after they both deserve.  Oh, and the mischievous goats are back providing more chuckles in this entertaining, interesting, well-written, must-read cozy.
