Between minding a pair of rambunctious goats, meetings with her quilting circle, and matchmaking, Millie Fisher has plenty to keep her busy through her golden years. But the witty widow always makes time to solve the odd murder . . .

Some Amish men don't know what's good for them. That's what Millie Fisher told herself when young Ben Baughman set his heart on marrying Tess Lieb. With Tess's father refusing to give his blessing and Tess's ex-boyfriend being a wet blanket, the hapless couple was bound to butt heads more than Millie's Boer goats. But when Ben tragically dies in a mysterious fire, Millie wonders if someone in her hometown of Harvest, Ohio, wanted Ben out of the wedding picture altogether . . .

With the help of her quilting buddies, and her outspoken Englischer friend Lois, Millie is determined to patch together all the clues without even dropping a stitch. She only hopes it won't be the death of her . . .

Praise for Courting can be Killer

“The use of Millie’s matchmaking intuition in the murder investigation brings a refreshing edge to the cozy Amish genre, and Flower combines quirky characters, close-knit community, and first-class sleuthing to great effect. Fans of Amish mysteries will love this.”
—Publishers Weekly

“There is nothing cozier than the second ‘Amish Matchmaker Mystery’; it’s filled with silly animals, including two Boer goats and a pig. However, the mystery itself is well plotted and will appeal to fans of Flower’s Amish “Candy Shop” mysteries, set in the same community with crossover characters.”
—Library Journal

Praise for Matchmaking Can be Murder

“Plot twists, the lovingly described setting and customs of Millie’s Amish community, quirky characters (including two rambunctious goats), and plenty of humor distinguish this first in a new series linked to Flower’s Amish Candy Shop mysteries.” —Booklist

“A sentimental view of Amish life complete with two charming goats makes for easy reading.”—Kirkus Reviews

“Prolific…A skilled storyteller.”—The Akron Beacon Journal

“Now, people can look forward to not one series, but two that involve the Amish community.”—Crimespree Magazine
