To Miriam Yoder, Michael Eicher is everything she doesn’t want. Prideful, cocky, arrogant. A defector of the Amish life. Why would a gut Amish woman like Miriam even consider being his friend again? Especially after what he’d put her through—professing his affection then skipping town. She didn’t have the heart to go through that again. It was easier to keep her heart sealed up and hidden away, … away, than to chance vulnerability. And she’d be fool to ever trust Michael again.
Michael has lived most of his youth as an irresponsible worldly young man. But when he’s forced to return home, his eyes are opened to the community he’s neglected. He’s only genuinely cared for one woman, Miriam Yoder. Will he be able to convince Miri to give him a second chance? Can this self-centered man who’d only lived for himself find something—or Someone—greater to live for?
A faith-filled story of second chances and learning what true love is, that’s sure to pull on your heartstrings.

God can make something beautiful of our broken lives. 5 stars
Spredemann has once again woven a heartwarming story that will make you smile, laugh, and cry. I love her ability to pull you into the novel instantly.
I look forward to reading her books because she does not disappoint.
I could not stop thinking about the characters long after the book was finished and I cried when I had to say goodbye to them. I felt like they were family and friends at the same time.
I think what I liked best were the Faith filled themes of the story. A reminder that God is always in control no matter what.
There were times when I felt that she was telling my story. I loved how I could relate to the people in the story.
Reading at night is my favorite thing to do so I lost some sleep but that’s ok! A wonderful story like this one is so worth it!
This book has been a joy to read!
I highly recommend this book. It’s her best one yet!
There wasn’t one thing about this book that I didn’t like.
I’m ready for the next one too.
My thanks for a complimentary copy of this book. I was NOT required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.
I loved this book, I enjoyed every chapter. I loved the characters and the story was very good from start to finish
Wonderful book. Shows opposites really do attract to each other. Must get for all Amish fiction collection or a great gift. I hope there is more to this series.
I love this book. I just finished the ARC book, The Heartbreaker, book # 2 of Amish Brides series, written by Jennifer Spredemann, and once again I was not disappointed.
This is a 5 star, page turner that kept my attention from page 1 to the very end. My favorite character in the book was Sammy, so wise beyond his years.
I always love the bible verses she uses as well.
A great book for everyone, I am ready for the next one…
This was a very engaging book. It had no dull moments and it taught some great Christian values. The story revolves around Miriam Yoder. Miriam has hard feelings regarding her past which she has kept secret for 5 years. And then comes Michael, a part of her past that stirs up the deep regrets in her heart. Both have made mistakes that they are having trouble coming to terms with. Both need forgiveness of others and of course, themselves.
A great book! A great real-life style of book. Things that happen to many. It’s a book well-worth reading. I highly recommend it. If you love second chances, you will love this book.
I received an ebook copy from the author. All thoughts are my own.
Jennifer Spredemann has done it again in this new book. It has wonderful characters. I would love to have Sammy for my grandfather and mentor. He is a delightful, insightful, gentleman who always knows how to help those who confide in him. I would really love to give him a hug. This book hits on many social things that happen in all our lives. You need to read this book. #Spredemann #heartbreaker #amish books. I read this book as an ARC for Jennifer Spredemann. The opinion expressed is mine alone. Juat read this book.
Miriam “Miri” and Michael dated a couple of times before he jumped and left his Amish roots. Miri was angry but still in love with Michael so when circumstances brought him back to stay with his grandfather Sammy, Miri had to adjust to seeing him again. Will they get back together? Will Miri’s secret be exposed to the community and the people she loves? You will definitely want to purchase this book and find out for yourself.
I have read other books by Jennifer Spredemann and this one is just as good. I really enjoyed this book because it kept me guessing about the outcome of each character’s situation and made it hard to put down.
A copy of this book was provided to me and my opinions are my own.
