An emotionally moving heartbreaking story that makes you want to reach into the book and hold both Mike and John to let them know that they will be ok. Rachel finds a picnic basket in the attic which belongs to her Mamm which has a very touching story behind it. She fixes meals for Mike and his younger brother John who lost their Mamm and who’s Daed has kidney disease. Mike is overwhelmed trying to take care of everybody and everything. With Rachel’s persistence and delicious Mike eventually excepts her help. 

This is a story that is very personal to the author and I for one, think for that reason, The Courtship Basket, is the most outstanding story I have read of Amy’s. 

I received a complimentary copy (or ARC) of this book from the author via NetGalley. I was under no obligation to write a review, and all options expressed in this review are completely my own.

This was a fantastic book.  I couldn't put it down.  This is the 2nd book in the series.  But you do not need to read them in order to know what is happening in the story.

Rachel has her heart broken by the man she expects to marry and her best friend.
Mike is busy taking care of his ill father and his 6 year old brother.
Neither one has time or wants a new relationship,  but everything happens in Gods time.

The book will make you laugh and cry.
