  • bestselling author Shelley Shepard Gray comes a new series that follows a bookmobile driver-turned-matchmaker who learns that her Amish patrons need a whole lot more than just new books to read.
  • Aaron Coblentz has a secret: he’s been studying to take the GED to get promoted at work. But he can’t let his Amish family know, not when his older brother already left the faith just a year after getting baptized, practically crippling the family. When Aaron asks bookmobile librarian Sarah Anne Miller for some additional study guides, she does one better. She arranges for Kayla Kaufman to be his tutor. Kayla has a secret, too.

But despite losing those she holds most dear, she hasn’t completely given up on love. Only now she seeks to find it in the sweet romance novels she secretly checks out from Sarah Anne’s bookmobile. As Aaron and Kayla’s study sessions start to feel less like work and more like pleasure, they soon realize that happily ever afters don’t only happen in fiction; sometimes they happen when you least expect it.

Really enjoyed the start to the new series

A new book series is always fun to start. This one is by an author that I have read many books by. I have seen her writing progress over the years and each book is better than the last.
This series focuses on a bookmobile librarian named Englisher Sarah Anne Miller her husband passed away and she is grieving him. Sarah knows the Amish and helps them pick out the books they need and has the ones ready for them to pick up whenever they come in including study books for Amish man Aaron Coblentz who is secretly studying for his GED.
She does him one better though as arranges for Kayla Kaufman to be his tutor.
Kayla is finding it hard to keep things in order as her father spirals into depression after his wive's death and she must deal with his erratic behavior and act like the parent .
When her boyfriend breaks up with her instead of letting it get her down she isn't ready to give up on love and checks out romantic fiction form the library bookmobile.
AAron and Kayla both have a lot of baggage they carry but we see them talking and realizing they have a lot in common. Bookmobile librarian Sarah Anne Miller is quite the matchmaker.
Multiple Sclerosis is also covered in a respectful way.
Looking forward to reading more in this series.
