Looking for a fresh start,
advice columnist Sissy Yoder heads to small-town Yoder, Kansas, to help
in her aunt’s café. But when a milkman is murdered, the newcomer becomes
the prime suspect . . .
After Sissy’s rodeo cowboy
boyfriend turns out to be more of a rodeo clown, she packs a bag; picks
up her Yorkshire terrier Duke; and leaves Tulsa, Oklahoma, bound for
her parents’ former hometown. There are still plenty of Yoders in Yoder,
Kansas, including Sissy’s aunt Bethel, who owns the Sunflower Café but
recently broke her leg. It’s a homecoming of sorts as Sissy arrives to
help in the café and reunite with her pregnant cousin Lizzie. Plus she
can continue to secretly write her newspaper advice column as
seventy-year-old “Aunt Bess.” But it’s Sissy who could use some advice
when she finds the milk deliveryman out behind the café with a knife in
his back. As the sheriff’s prime suspect, it’s up to Sissy to catch the
backstabber herself—before someone else gets creamed . . .

Amy loves nothing more than a good book. Except for her family...and maybe homemade tacos...and nail polish. But reading and writing are definitely high on the list.
Born and bred in Mississippi, Amy is a transplanted Southern Belle who now lives in Oklahoma with her deputy husband, their genius son, two spoiled cats, and one very lazy beagle. Oh, and don't forget the stray kitty that has taken up residence on her front porch. ^..^
When she's not creating quirky characters and happy endings, she's chauffeuring her prodigy to guitar lessons, orchestra concerts and baseball practice. She has a variety of hobbies, but her favorite is whatever gets her out of housework.
Amy also writes contemporary romances under the pen name Amie Louellen.
An award winning author, Amy is a member of RWA and ACFW. She loves to hear from readers. You can find her on Facebook, Instagram, Google+, Twitter, Goodreads, and Pinterest. For links to the various sites, check her website: www.amylillardbooks.com
I really enjoyed this book, except it started out with a murder. It was fun to follow the clues as Sissy tries to prove who was guilty so she could prove she was innocent. I was totally shocked when the guilty person is reviewed. I know this is just a novel but the ending left me with questions such as “what is going to happen to ( you are going to have to read the book to know who and why I am wondering).This book has Amish and English characters. This book was a fun escape from reality and it was a quick read as well. Definitely will be reading any other books In this series when they are written.
I received a complimentary copy from the author and these opinions are my own.
Sounds like an excellent book!
