Overview
Blessings in Disguise is the first book in the Sugarcreek Amish Mysteries fiction series.
As Cheryl takes inventory of the Swiss Miss gift shop stock and acclimates herself to her new surroundings amid petting zoos and corn mazes, she notices something peculiar happening. Some of the items that customers want to purchase from her store are not listed in her inventory.
Where are these quality products coming from? Is it, as Cheryl's new friend Naomi Miller believes, that someone is sending her an anonymous blessing? If so, what is she to make of the menacing notes that keep surfacing, which warn her to “take care”…
MEET THE CHARACTERS
Naomi Miller
Cheryl's newfound friend, 40-year-old Naomi Miller, supplies homemade jams, jellies, baked goods, and fudge for the Swiss Miss gift shop to supplement her family's income. Married to Seth, Naomi has three stepchildren and three children of her own.
Seth Miller
Naomi's husband, Seth, is a hard worker and good provider for his family. While he appears to be standoffish and serious, he is in fact full of wit and entrepreneurial ideas. He feels responsible for the fact that his daughter, Sarah, eloped with an “Englisher”.
Levi Miller
Seth Miller's eldest son Levi, spends most of his time tending to the horses after being rejected by a young woman he grew up believing he would someday marry. Levi insists he has forsaken marriage…until he meets Cheryl Cooper. Still, a romantic relationship with an “Englisher” could never work. Or…could it?
Ben and Reuben Vogel
Years ago, Ben was shunned by the Amish (including his brother, Reuben) when he left the church. That's why Ben and Reuben never speak to each other. They just meet at the Swiss Miss gift shop every other day to play checkers in silence.
