This book was a little different from the previous books where Tabitha interviewed each sister about their feelings on how to select a husband. The book centers around Hope who finds out that a local bed-and-breakfast is being put on the market. She worked there when she was younger and has always had a dream of owning a bed and breakfast. Unfortunately, Florence is also interested in the bed and breakfast and Hope knows that they can never outbid Florence. She and Florence have a few heated words, but Hope feels very sad that she said what she said to Florence. Hope’s husband, Fairfax, is also on board and they put in a sealed bid. Since their bid was not the highest they were not awarded the bed and breakfast. Tabatha is in the book, but she has decided to put off finding a husband. She’s going to concentrate on finding a job instead .The book was a little unbelievable when Tabatha asked about a job. The people put her to work immediately and of course things did not work out. So Tabatha is still stuck with milking the cows.

I have often found myself frustrated with Hope through out the series, as she tends to make assumptions and feel sorry for herself to a small degree. This book brough her character full circle and I like that it mirrors real life in many aspects.

I have followed the Baker Bonnet Sisters, books since Samantha Price wrote the very first one.

I have enjoyed every one of these books from the first series to this latest book.

Whilst you don't have to start with the very first series.
Many of the characters have been introduced in the first series.


Thank you Samantha Price.

Once again I have enjoyed another book, on a simpler way of life.


The book was supplied to me as an Arc, I have freely chosen to write this review.

Hope is Book 4 in The Amish Bonnet Sisters: Wilma's Daughters series by Samantha Price.

Tabitha is on her way to visit the most sensible of the bonnet sisters, Hope.

Hope always knows her place and is always trying to help others achieve. But when she finds out the bed-and-breakfast where she worked as a young woman was coming up for sale she wanted it for her family, but knowing that there was only so much money available, she knew she would not be able to outbid her older sister Florence, but she and her husband, Fairfax, decided to put their best effort forward.

If you are a follower off any of the bonnet sisters series, each of these characters have become special and very realistic. With the help of Fairfax, she learns to be content in whatever situation God puts them while trying to curve her jealous feelings toward her half-sister, Florence. As usual Tabatha is in one mess after another. Of course, as always none of the problems were her fault.

I loved this one, it’s one of the best in the series so far.

I highly recommend you pre-order this five star book today. I was given an ARC by the author, but was in no way required to give a positive review. All ideas are my own.

This is number 4 is the series of Wilma's daughters, and Tabitha questioning all of her aunts on love and marriage. She doesn't want to be a dairy farmer/dairy farmer's wife. She's over milking the cows on their farm.
This time it's Hope's turn to get questioned, but things take an unexpected turn with questioning her. Hope gives her ideas beyond marriage and what to think about and do instead. This is when things turn rather funny reading Tabitha's dilemma. She's a willing worker, but at what cost? Hope's idea has Tabitha rather excited in her endeavors.
However, things seem to go very wrong for her, than what she thought. She realizes work comes naturally to some, but not to all.
Will Hope's dream come a reality, or will it be shut down quickly? Will Tabitha decide milking cows is her gift from God, or will she decide something else?

****I RECEIVED AN ARC, FROM THE AUTHOR, OF THIS BOOK. THE RATING & REVIEW ARE ALL MY VERY OWN WORDS, WITHOUT ANY INFLUENCE****

[Evelyn Foreman · Rating 5 out of 5]

Learning the Brown Bed and Breakfast was going on the market stirred the long-held dream of someday taking ownership Hope had carried for decades. But finding out her sister Florence was interested as well, ignited flames of resentment, bitterness and defeat. Would God grant the desires of her heart or would she once again be beset by Florence? I am thoroughly enjoying this series, each installment better than the last! I was given an early copy by the author and my review reflects my honest opinion.

Another awesome novela by Samantha Price. This is book 4 in the Amish Bonnet Sisters. Awesome series if you like a good clean book to read and its a page turner with a great Author writing it. Pick this series up. Conflict comes between two sisters. And of course who is in the middle of it Tabitha. Can they work things out? Reading Samantha's books is like being in them yourself. You become a part of the family. Samantha is a wonderful writer you will fall in love with this series and I can't wait till the next one releases. 5 star

In this book, Tabitha continues her journey to find the answers to a life without milking cows. She visits her Aunt Hope who has always been the down to earth and sensible of her aunts for guidance, only to find her Aunt Hope is having her own quandry after dreams long buried come back to light. She advises Tabitha to try different jobs and when she finds tbe right one it will be worth it. You will enjoy every page in this book as Tabitha tries many different, non-cow milking jobs, and Hope learns that sometimes dreams are meant to be shared and believed in.

Hope has had a dream.  She never shared it with anyone. But now that the bed and breakfast is up for sale, she must.

Hope is almost positive her older sister will outbid her and get the inn.  She feels that Florence always gets her way.

Tabatha is at it again.  She is trying to find her way. What is she good at? It almost seems like nothing. Lol. She needs to trust GOD. He has plans for her.

I always enjoy Samantha Price's books.  Entertaining. Sweet. Clean.

Tabitha is on a quest to ensure she does NOT end up a milkmaid when she gets married. She sets out to talk with all of her aunts to get their opinions on marriage and of course calamity drama and folly ensues because…. It’s Tabitha. It’s Hope’s turn!!! With dreams on the line and friction brewing this short read is a page turner!!! I throughly have enjoyed The Bonnet Sister’s series from the very beginning!

[K H · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have really enjoyed this series so far. I liked how this time Tabitha was looking for work and those segments reminded me of a children’s book character.

[Dianna Mcdougal]

Very exciting book, kept me guessing, glad now the next one....Hard to keep a job. She needs to continue to milk cows.
