About this ebook
With one of their grandchildren happily married, Anna and Felty Helmuth are ready for their next matchmaking success. Because there’s nothing more rewarding than sparking unexpected love—and putting Huckleberry Hill, Wisconsin, on the map for romance . . .
Cautious to a fault, Lily Eicher strives to live up to her dat’s high standards. She’s certainly not the kind of proper Amish girl who would make time for someone as impetuous as the Helmuths’ grandson, Aden—even if his lively spirit and caring ways are showing her just how wonderful following her heart can be . . .
Recklessly doing the right thing got Aden into big trouble. A fresh start at his grandparents’ is just what he needs. And shy, pretty Lily is turning his world upside down and making him want to prove he can do good within the rules. But now both must find enough faith and understanding to risk pursuing their dreams—together . . .
“There is plenty of humor in this series as well as delicious romance, conflict, and character growth . . . Jennifer Beckstrand’s writing is simply beautiful, ranging from at times humorous and uplifting to emotional and melancholy.”—Amish Reader
“The characters that people the Huckleberry Hill books are many and delightful. There is a goodness and innocence about them, but that is not to say they are all perfect or that there is no conflict in the plot.”—Romance Reviews Today

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Anna and Felty are at it again, in their delightful way of playing matchmaker for their Grandchildren. Anna especially seems gifted in doing so with one success story already under her crisp white apron!I love this Amish community and am thrilled to be back in their homes, and around their farms. This time Arden from Sugarcreek, the Grandson, is now staying with and helping his Grandparents. When you hear that Arden has been arrested at least three times, and probably should have been more, you will wonder what kind of an Amish boy he is? Now gossip can be deceiving, and Arden has the local Amish Grapevine working overtime. What it all comes down to is his love of all living things, including trees, which accounts for one of his arrests.Enter Lily Eichner who has been hired by Anna, she is at it again, to help her, and puts her right in front of Arden every day. There is a big problem to their relationship, that grapevine has reached Lily’s Dad, and he wants no part of Arden, and actually has already picked out a husband for her, the Bishop’s son, Tyler Yoder. Now you want to dislike Tyler, but he is so loveable, I couldn’t, the guy is so nice to everyone.There is another loveable character in this story, Pilot, a humongous dog, and a big kisser with his wet tongue. He also likes to charge head on into people. Love how Lily gets his name mixed up, and how this dog saves the day, even if she has to use more hand sanitizer.Your in for a delightful, and wonderful time reading this story, and have to wonder how it is all going to turn out. Lily never disobeys her father. Will she get the courage to follow her heart? I for one can’t wait for the next book!!I received this book from the Publisher Kensington and Net Galley, and was not required to give a positive review.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved this story! Perfect ending.Huckleberry Summer takes us back to Huckleberry Hill and the matchmaking of Anna Helmuth. I've learned to love Felty and Anna Helmuth. They are the perfect grandparents.As Anna goes about trying to get her grandson Aden Helmuth and Lily Eicher together she may have bit off more than what she can chew. Aden seems to be the bad boy and Lily would never go against her father no matter what. Is this relationship doomed before it even gets started? Pick up a copy of Huckleberry Summer and enjoy.I can't wait to read, Huckleberry Christmas to find out who are the next victims of Anna Helmuth!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Lily has to be the most obedient and cautious Amish daughter who ever lived. Though she loves her father dearly, she almost lives in dread of displeasing him, and his strict upbringing has dictated her behavior. A complication to her life arrives in the form of one Aden Helmuth, and neither of their lives will ever be the same. As expected, the road to happiness is quite a rocky one, one they may not be able to traverse. Author Jennifer Beckstrand does a commendable job of creating interesting and unusual characters and placing them in an equally intriguing and unique plot.
