Love Finds You in Sugarcreek, Ohio – THE MOVIE! + Book #Review


Guideposts Books is excited to announce the premiere of a new film based on the book Love Finds You in Sugarcreek, Ohio (Summerside Press) by Serena Miller. 

A mysterious outsider casts a long shadow on Ohio’s Amish country. Policewoman Rachel Troyer has always looked after her three elderly Amish aunts, proprietors of a farmhouse inn near Sugarcreek, Ohio. The idyllic town is popular with tourists, who come to sample its famous Amish goods. But one thing is clear to Rachel – Joe Matthews is no tourist. When the bearded stranger lands on her aunts’ doorstep, begging shelter for himself and his young son, Rachel is suspicious.
Will she be able to uncover Joe’s secrets despite her aunts’ – and her own – growing affection for him?

MY REVIEW-I reviewed the book Love Finds You in Sugarcreek, Ohio, not the movie. I have seen the book but because I don't really care for Amish style stories, I have never picked it up to read it. Needless to say, I will never do that again:) I thoroughly enjoyed this novel!! Serena Miller pens a great story that deals with Amish country and a police officer, a woman to be exact. Boy is that a mix for you! At the beginning of the story we meet Rachel and her three aunts. They took her in and they are a hoot for sure. I really liked Anna and her sweet ways. Joe is a man who is hiding from something and yet finds his way to the inn that Rachel's aunts used to run. His little boy was the cutest thing ever!! I was impressed with the different style of writing as my aversion to Amish books mainly stems from the similarity of plots. This one was totally different and I loved it!!
