Sugarcreek Amish Mysteries #22
Horse Sense and Sensibility
Horses all across the county are disappearing, including Cheryl’s Ranger and the Millers’ Samson. So she and Levi join forces to find the thieves and recover their animals.
In the meantime, Cheryl stumbles across an old diary of a recently deceased Sugarcreek resident, Emmaline Draper. Apparently, when the author was young, she had fallen in love with an Amish man. But because she was an Englischer, the couple never acted on their feelings.
The words from the diary pierce Cheryl’s heart. She doesn’t want to end up alone like Emmaline. But can Cheryl muster up the courage to share her true feelings with Levi? Or will they continue to run from the love that has been building in their hearts from their very first meeting?

Amazing book! I'm not sure who Emmaline was, Either I missed that detail or Good ridds got that description wrong. The diary she found was by Carrie, Who was very much alive and in a nursing home!
I was completely taken by Carrie's story and Cheryl's! Definitely 1 of the best books in this series, if not the best! So happy about how it all turned out ! Diving into the next 1 right away! Extremely anxious to see how all of this goes

Another good installment in the series. The plot of this book is based on several horses being stolen in the area. Cheryl's Ranger and the Miller's Samson are two of them. The book focuses on solving the mystery and redemption for those involved. A fictional story of love, grace and forgiveness to remind us that such things do still exist in society today.
