One story about redemption and honor. Sometimes life takes a turn and both characters find themselves in this situation.

Isn't it funny how life's circumstances can bring us together?
Kelly Long has written such a book that does just this. She's been one of my long time favorite authors and does a superb job in bringing a story to life.
I like that her characters come with flaws or baggage if you want to say that but flaws is a much nicer word
I devoured this book in one sitting. I didn't want to put it down and this is a book that will leave you long after you're done with it.
I love a story that can offer characters Hope, Love , Grace and forgiveness all in a tight fitting so to speak.
And may I say that the cover of the book is gorgeous! It was what made me want to read it mostly because of the girl's expression on her face. I wanted to find out what had her so afraid and looking over her shoulder.
The cover fits nicely with the storyline.
I was very impressed. I strongly recommend this book.
My thanks to Netgalley for a copy of this book. NO compensations were received. All opinions are my own.

This is NOT the usual Amish fiction. This book was well written, but I just couldn't get into it. Maybe it was because I didn't realize it was book 5 of a series. If you've read the other books you might love it. Don't let my review stop you from giving it a try. Thank you Kensington Books via NetGalley for the copy of this book. All opinions expressed are my own.

5 stars: 5/5 stars

I am one of Kelly Long's biggest fans and I love the Ice Mountain series. I have read all of the series (this is book #5) and feel that it is helpful to read the entire series but I do think that this book could be understood as a stand-alone novel. While an Amish book, Kelly does add some "spice and pizzazz" to the story. The characters are believable and likable. They also show that the Amish are not perfect and have their troubles and past issues, as well as Englischers do.

I highly recommend this book to readers.

I received a copy of this book from netgalley and Zebra Publishing in exchange for an honest review. I was not required to write a positive review and all opinions expressed are my own.

An Amish Match on Ice Mountain is my first read by Kelly Long. Although, this is a series I read this book as a stand alone. The only thing I missed is wanting to go back and read the entire series! Undesirable circumstances brought Ella and Stephen into each others paths. They each bring their own baggage and heartbreak to the story.
Forgiveness, love and compassion for others makes this a wonderful read.

Another great story written by Kelly Long. I was hooked from the very beginning, to the very end; I was looking for more.

I can't wait to read more stories written by Kelly in the future.

I received my copy to review from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This is my review in my own words.

An Amish Match on Ice Mountain was a wonderful addition to the series by Kelly Long. I love the way she makes the characters come alive. I have enjoyed every trip I have made to Ice Mountain by way of her books.

I have read and enjoyed all of the books in the Ice Mountain series. A beautifully written inspirational book. I loved the plot, meeting up with the people of Ice Mountain again and the story line is phenomenal. I look forward to more books in this series.

This is another great book in the Amish Ice Mountain series by Kelly Long.

Ella and Stephen are both recovering from deep hurts in their lives and we find them enduring and overcoming difficult circumstances, which brings them together. Well written and enjoyable.

Good, multi-layered story of love, faith, and overcoming the past. Stephen left his home on Ice Mountain after he was accused of murder and shunned. Even though he was proved innocent, he no longer felt at home there. Instead, he moved to an Englisch town and worked as a firefighter. His life took a dramatic change when he rescued a young woman from a burning building. Ella was pregnant, abandoned by the father of her baby, and in danger from a greedy aunt and uncle.

I really liked Stephen and Ella. He is kind, honorable, and protective. He is well-liked by his fellow firefighters and has a strong friendship with his doctor roommate. Though he no longer lived in the Amish community, his faith was still strong and guided his behavior. Ella is sweet, determined, and feisty. She was determined to give her baby the best life possible, even under the most difficult of circumstances.

Stephen and Ella met when he saved her from a burning building. There was a connection between them from the very start, both physical and emotional. Stephen was drawn to Ella in a way that he'd never experienced before. He wanted to take care of her and her baby, at the same time he found it almost impossible to keep his hands off of her. Stephen's kindness to her is something that Ella hasn't felt in a very long time. She's attracted to him but doesn't feel she deserves the compassion of such a good man. I loved the protectiveness Stephen experienced when she went back to her old job, and the actions he took to show it. When they found out that the fire was deliberately set in an attempt to kill Ella, Stephen was determined to save her, even if that meant returning to Ice Mountain.

I liked the development of the relationship between Stephen and Ella. Stephen fell fast and hard for Ella and wanted nothing more than to make her part of his life forever. I loved how he already thought of her baby as his own. Ella felt the same about him but worried that their differing lives would make it impossible. I loved how easily she fit into the community and the hope that it gave her for the future. There were many sweet scenes between them as they got to know each other. I especially loved the way Ella took care of Stephen after the bear attack. There were also some fun scenes of his friends giving him a hard time over his feelings for her. Both were a little wary of expressing their feelings, but when a crisis threatened their lives, they realized that life was too short not to take the risk.

There was an element of mystery/suspense that ran through the book. We found out early on that Ella's life was in danger. There were several twists and turns that kept me guessing as to what would happen. I was intrigued by the first man sent to kill her. His actions were not what I expected, and I found my opinion of him changing rapidly. He redeemed himself quite nicely by the end of the book. The second killer was creepy and evil, made even worse by the connection he already shared with Ella. The final confrontation was intense and had me on the edge of my seat until it was over.

Part of the story dealt with Stephen and his relationship with his mother and aunt. After meeting them, I completely understood the strain he'd been under as a kid and teenager. I thought it said a lot about his need to protect Ella that he even considered going back to that toxic atmosphere. It was interesting to see how the time away, plus his feelings for Ella, helped Stephen move past the resentment toward forgiveness. I also liked seeing the changes that Stephen's mother went through and how she faced up to her mistakes. There was a neat little twist involving her at the end of the book.

Ella Nichols works as a cleaning lady in a brothel. She is young, beautiful and five months pregnant. Her aunt and uncle are trying to have her killed. Beautifully written inspirational romance. I enjoyed the plot, characters and the author's writing.

This just wasn’t the type of Amish fiction that I’m used to readingand I had a hard time connecting with the characters in this story. I’m used to reading more “faith based” Amish fiction and this didn’t fit that category. This is not the author’s fault, as I was not her intended audience. I should have looked at this book more carefully before I downloaded it. I’m sure there are others who will like this story, but it just wasn’t for me.

Ella Nichols works as a cleaning lady in a brothel. She is young, beautiful and five months pregnant. Her aunt and uncle are trying to have her killed. The first attempt is setting her boarding house on fire while she is there. Firemen rush to the scene and a young fireman, Stephen Lambert, climbs a ladder in a risky rescue to save Ella. Stephen was born in the Amish community of Ice Mountain. After being shunned because of a murder charge, Stephen has left the Amish and vows to never return. He is drawn to Ella and her situation and helps her to run away to a safe place to save her life.

An Amish Match on Ice Mountain by Kelly Long is available from Zebra, an imprint of Kensington Books. An egalley of this book was made available by the publisher in exchange for a honest review.

The Ice Mountain story continues in this latest book. Stephen's story is highlighted in this story as he rescues a pregnant 'English' woman, Ella from a burning building then returns to the mountain with her. Instant attraction for both will become most of the story while Stephen tries to protect Ella from an assassin. As always in this series, adult themes are more prevalent than in the usual Amish fiction books.

A beautifully written inspirational romance. I enjoyed the plot, characters and the author's writing. Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for my ARC. This is my unbiased review.

It was wonderful getting access to read An Amish Match on Ice Mountain fron netgally. It was a great story that kept you wondering what would happen next. It had mystery, love, hope, and forgiveness. It was such a great story of new beginnings and a nice love story.

Lor Long always knows how to suck me into her books and wont let me out until I have felt every single emotions. This one was fantastic and captivated me from the very get go!

An Amish Match on Ice Mountain is the fifth installment from the Ice Mountain series. I thought it was good and I am giving it three stars.

Kelly Long tells a wonderful story of romance between an Englisch and Amish character. From their initial attraction to their full blown love story, you are pulled into their suspenseful lives which has you on edge with its twists and turns. This is an adult love story with adult situations yet presented carefully for readers to enjoy. Faith plays a very strong role in the novel.

This is another great book in the Amish Ice Mountain series by Kelly Long.

I loved the characters of Ella and Stephen and how their circumstances brought them together and how the story flows and ends.

Each person is recovering from deep hurts in their lives and we find them enduring and overcoming difficult circumstances, which brings them together. Mystery, forgiveness, and love lend to a great read that I would highly recommend to those who enjoy reading Amish romances.
