Love Finds yoi in Paradise, Pennsylvania

Enjoyed the book very much. Started reading and couldn't put it down. Got it at Sams for a real good price.

Slow beginning Astonishing ending

I was dragging in the begining of the book and then it took an unpredicted turn. I was in tears and couldn't put the book down. So stick with it.

A Fun Read With Local Flavor

Although not in Paradise, Pa, I live close enough to enjoy the local flavor. Loree tells a good story with a satisfying conclusion. Highly recommend it.

Great book

I bought this book because I love visiting Paradise, Pennsylvania and enjoy reading books about the Amish. I'd never read any of Loree Lough's books before. This book was excellent. I started and finished it in the same day. I cried, laughed, and smiled.

A Delightful Read

Love Finds You in Paradise, PA was my second experience with a new and delightful series of books published by Summerside Press. I was so excited to read another one of these books, and author Loree Lough did not disappoint with her first offering in this series. Love Finds You in Paradise, PA constantly left me with a smile on my face and an eagerness to get to the next page. The emotions shown between Simon and Julia were very natural and believable, and I found myself rooting for their relationship to succeed right to the very end. Even though this book is definitely geared as a romance, issues such as justice and loss are things that Simon and Julia must face as they are getting to know each other. Simon and Julia also share a very special friendship with a local Amish family with three children. The youngest child, Levi, provided several LOL moments for me, particularly when he is trying to learn why Julia has no husband. I appreciated the small amount of Amish culture that was added to give another dimension to the storyline. As a whole, I wouldn't put it in the category of "Amish fiction," but there are evident signs of their simple lifestyle and beliefs scattered throughout the book. Overall, if you're looking for that next light read, then this would definitely be a recommendation of mine. This was not my first experience with Loree Lough, so I knew that I would be in for a treat. I'm eagerly awaiting the next 2 books that she's got planned for the Love Finds You series.
