Caleb Miller’s brother, Ryan, has been accused of stealing valuable
coins from his employer, the city museum. Having been suspended from
his job because of the accusation, he wants Caleb to help clear his
name in the hope he can get his job back. Ryan received a flyer from
a small lakeside Amish camp in Serenity, Maine. A note on the flyer
suggested that he might find the coins there. He wants Caleb to pose
as an Amish groundskeeper so he can search for the coins.
Caleb, although
fluent in German, doesn’t want to pretend to be Amish. He feels it
would be an insult to the owners of the camp. However, he finally
agrees.
Rose Allgyer has
taken over running the camp for the summer while her aunt and uncle
get medical treatment. Having been betrayed by her last suitor, she’s
not interested in a relationship with Caleb, besides she can’t help
but believe he’s hiding something. However, Caleb has a winning
personality and Rose finds herself thawing toward him.
This is a delightful
romance. The main characters are well developed and likable. You
can’t help rooting for them to get over their differences and get
together. The mystery is mostly in the background. It drives some of
the action, but the focus of the story is on Caleb and Rose.
I received this book
from Harlequin for this review.
