An Amish Flower Farm
She grows flowers.
He raises bees for honey.
They help each other out,
because that's what neighbors do…
Belinda Graber loves growing flowers for her family to sell at the Amish marketplace. Venturing beyond the farm to sell them in town, though, is out of the question. People would stare at the birthmark on her cheek, and she's dealt with enough teasing in her life.
As a beekeeper, Adam Fisher knows how blessed he is to live next door to the Grabers' greenhouses and fields. But when his father is injured, Adam has to take a job at the local mill. How will he manage the honey harvest?
Adam and Belinda make a deal: if she tends his hives, he'll sell her flowers in town.
Belinda's sure that her growing feelings for Adam could never be returned. Meanwhile, Adam can't help but notice how his shy neighbor charms the bees…or is he the one being charmed? Because his last courtship ended badly, Adam tells himself this arrangement is strictly business, even if Belinda is sweet as honey.
This uplifting Amish romance includes a free Hallmark original recipe for Bee Sting Cake for Two.

Any book about the Amish is something I love. Mindy Steele has created characters so true to the Amish, in Belinda and Adam, that I was hard pressed to read it in sections per our book club. Adam and Belinda believe in the Amish tenet of community and helping others. This belief guides their very existence and leads them to a glorious ending. This book is wonderful!
I thought I was burned out on Amish story’s when I started reading this with my book club…but it was sooooo GREAT I couldn’t put it down! Such a sweet story of understanding and becoming! Thanks Mindy for writing such a fabulous story with amazing characters-I loved them all, you left me wanting to know about their stories! Hope there is a second one soon!

An Amish Flower Farm An uplifting romance from Hallmark Publishing by Mindy Steele, Hallmark Publishing Narrated by Rebecca Gallagher I received an audiobook arc from NetGalley and Hallmark Publishing in exchange for an honest review. This is my first time reading a book by this author and actually my first time reading an Amish romance ever. My mother in law is a huge fan of Amish romances so I wanted to check it out as her birthday is approaching. I was about 1/3 of the way through listening when I went ahead and ordered the book for her. It was that good! 😊 This is a heartwarming story that centers on learning to value what is truly important in a partner - honesty, integrity, sincerity, a good work ethic, a willingness to help others in need and to think of what others need. While this was a culture I was minimally familiar with the descriptions were vivid, easily accessible and relatable. I love when a book incorporates food and nature in such a way that the reader can almost smell and taste what is described in the scene. This was definitely the case with this experience. The narration and sound quality were superb. This was a sweet, wholesome, comforting read without being too corny or cheesy. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I’m sure my mother in law will too! 5/5
