Meanwhile, her best friend, Lois Henry, is still salty that Millie didn\u2019t have a big wedding where she could get dressed up and be maid of honor. But there\u2019s a way Millie can make it up to her: with a dreary January upon them, it&#8217;s the perfect time for a girls\u2019 trip to the Amish community in sunny Pinecraft, Florida. Oft-divorced Lois is decidedly not Amish, but she thinks it will be a hoot.<\/span><br \/><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">With the blessing of her sweet husband, Uriah, Millie agrees to go. On the tour bus that transports Ohio\u2019s Amish snowbirds to Florida every year, Millie and Lois strike up a friendship with a young woman traveling alone. She reminds Millie of her beloved niece, and Millie takes her under her wing. But even before the end of their first day in Florida, tragedy strikes.<\/span><br \/><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Millie and Lois find their new friend dead on the beach, seemingly drowned. But who would want to hurt the sweet young woman? Is there a murderous snowbird among them? Or was it someone vengeful from her past? Clearly, vacation time is over for Millie and Lois, and it\u2019s time to dive beneath the surface to hook a killer . . .<\/span><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col3-2 tb_bede137 last\">\n                                                        <div class=\"tb-column-inner tf_box tf_w\">\n                        <!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_9dql137  repeat \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n    <p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-25881 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/smitten-recommends-banner-1.png?resize=296%2C72\" alt=\"\" width=\"296\" height=\"72\" \/><\/p><hr \/><p><strong>Release Date:<\/strong> Nov 25, 2025<br \/><strong>Series:<\/strong> <em>Amish Matchmaker\u00a0<br \/><\/em><strong>Book: <\/strong>6<br \/><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Kensington<br \/><strong>Imprint:<\/strong> Kensington Cozies<br \/><strong>Price:<\/strong> $7.99<\/p><hr \/><p>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the sixth book in the <em>Amish Matchmaker<\/em> series, a spin-off of the popular <em>Amish Candy Shop<\/em> series. Some old friends from that series, including Jethro the mischievous pig, appear in this book. The two main characters of this book (and the series) are best friends <strong>Millie<\/strong> and <strong>Lois<\/strong>.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Millie Fisher is an Amish woman who recently remarried after being widowed many years ago. Her longtime friend is Lois Henry, who has been married several times and is always on the lookout for her next husband. She is not Amish, but the two women respect each other&#8217;s beliefs, even when they don&#8217;t always agree, and are the best of friends.\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This book finds the two friends taking a bus trip from their home in Ohio to Florida. Millie is thrilled to leave the cold behind, but will miss her husband and her two pet goats. On the bus, Millie befriends a young newlywed who seems to be having some problems in her recent marriage. Millie is shocked and saddened when she, Lois, and Jethro find the young woman dead on the beach shortly after they arrive in Florida. Lois doesn&#8217;t call Millie the Amish Marple for nothing &#8211; Millie is determined to find out who killed the young Amish woman. From the clues in the story, I was able to identify the killer, but was surprised by the motive.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This was a fun book in an entertaining series. If you\u2019re new to the series but enjoy Laurien Berenson\u2019s Peg and Rose series, you\u2019ll like the \u201copposites attract\u201d vibe between Millie and Lois and the humorous situations they find themselves in.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Christine<\/em><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_j04s137 customBorderRad repeat \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n    <p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4aKbnY5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a><\/span><span class=\"s2\">\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/4sgzrYV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">iBooks<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/newlyweds-can-be-knocked-off-amanda-flower\/1146910282?ean=9781496737519\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">B&amp;N<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/newlyweds-can-be-knocked-off-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">Kobo<\/span><\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Amanda_Flower_Newlyweds_Can_Be_Knocked_Off?id=PQ1LEQAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s3\">Google Play<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n            \t    <\/div>\n\t    <!-- \/row_inner -->\n\t<\/div>\n\t<!-- \/module_row -->\n\t<\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After years on her own, Millie has been busy adjusting to married life once again.

Meanwhile, her best friend, Lois Henry, is still salty that Millie didn\u2019t have a big wedding where she could get dressed up and be maid of honor. But there\u2019s a way Millie can make it up to her: with a dreary January upon them, it's the perfect time for a girls\u2019 trip to the Amish community in sunny Pinecraft, Florida. Oft-divorced Lois is decidedly not Amish, but she thinks it will be a hoot.<br \/><br \/>With the blessing of her sweet husband, Uriah, Millie agrees to go. On the tour bus that transports Ohio\u2019s Amish snowbirds to Florida every year, Millie and Lois strike up a friendship with a young woman traveling alone. She reminds Millie of her beloved niece, and Millie takes her under her wing. But even before the end of their first day in Florida, tragedy strikes.<br \/><br \/>Millie and Lois find their new friend dead on the beach, seemingly drowned. But who would want to hurt the sweet young woman? Is there a murderous snowbird among them? Or was it someone vengeful from her past? Clearly, vacation time is over for Millie and Lois, and it\u2019s time to dive beneath the surface to hook a killer . . .<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/smitten-recommends-banner-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"296\" height=\"72\" \/><\/p><hr \/><p><strong>Release Date:<\/strong> Nov 25, 2025<br \/><strong>Series:<\/strong> <em>Amish Matchmaker\u00a0<br \/><\/em><strong>Book: <\/strong>6<br \/><strong>Publisher:<\/strong> Kensington<br \/><strong>Imprint:<\/strong> Kensington Cozies<br \/><strong>Price:<\/strong> $7.99<\/p><hr \/><p>\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is the sixth book in the <em>Amish Matchmaker<\/em> series, a spin-off of the popular <em>Amish Candy Shop<\/em> series. Some old friends from that series, including Jethro the mischievous pig, appear in this book. The two main characters of this book (and the series) are best friends <strong>Millie<\/strong> and <strong>Lois<\/strong>.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Millie Fisher is an Amish woman who recently remarried after being widowed many years ago. Her longtime friend is Lois Henry, who has been married several times and is always on the lookout for her next husband. She is not Amish, but the two women respect each other's beliefs, even when they don't always agree, and are the best of friends.\u00a0<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This book finds the two friends taking a bus trip from their home in Ohio to Florida. Millie is thrilled to leave the cold behind, but will miss her husband and her two pet goats. On the bus, Millie befriends a young newlywed who seems to be having some problems in her recent marriage. Millie is shocked and saddened when she, Lois, and Jethro find the young woman dead on the beach shortly after they arrive in Florida. Lois doesn't call Millie the Amish Marple for nothing - Millie is determined to find out who killed the young Amish woman. From the clues in the story, I was able to identify the killer, but was surprised by the motive.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This was a fun book in an entertaining series. If you\u2019re new to the series but enjoy Laurien Berenson\u2019s Peg and Rose series, you\u2019ll like the \u201copposites attract\u201d vibe between Millie and Lois and the humorous situations they find themselves in.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Christine<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4aKbnY5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/4sgzrYV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iBooks<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/newlyweds-can-be-knocked-off-amanda-flower\/1146910282?ean=9781496737519\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B&amp;N<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/newlyweds-can-be-knocked-off-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kobo<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Amanda_Flower_Newlyweds_Can_Be_Knocked_Off?id=PQ1LEQAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Play<\/a><\/strong><\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32039"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32039\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32043,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32039\/revisions\/32043"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
