The first installment of Amy Clipston's bestselling Amish Marketplace series! Cakes, pies, and a tender romance await you in The Bake Shop.

Christiana Kurtz loves to bake, but when her bake stand becomes too busy, her mother encourages her to move her business to the local market. Her new bake shop is an instant success, but it becomes so inundated with customers that the line blocks the leather and woodcraft shop next door. The shop's owner, Jeff Stoltzfus, catches Christiana's attention at first glance with his dark brown eyes and sad expression, and she longs to know more about him.

After a series of mishaps and Jeff's complaints that her stand is driving away his business due to the lines, their relationship begins rockily. Drawn to each other despite themselves, Jeff and Christiana forge a friendship that begins to deepen, and Jeff slowly begins to trust her with the painful secrets of his past.

When Christiana's father makes a surprise visit to the market, he is upset to find that Jeff uses the building's electricity to personalize his items. He tells Christiana that Jeff is too modern for her, and she's forbidden from dating him. Christiana is crushed, but she knows she must obey her father.

When Jeff's shop catches fire one day, he puts the entire market in jeopardyâ??including Christiana's bake shop, but she can't deny how she feels about him despite his mistakes. Though the odds are against them, can the two young people find a way to rebuild both their businesses and their relationship?

    I have had an ARC of this book for what feels like forever. Every few months I went back and started reading the book but lost interest quite quickly. I have enjoyed almost every Amy Clipston book in the past but this one just missed the mark for me. It felt a like a very stereotypical Amish novel. Maybe I will give this book a chance in the future, but that day is not today.

    Christiana's little farmstand bake shop does a good business, but sometimes eager customers do not respect business hours and come knocking at the door in the midst of meals. When she visits her cousins who operate businesses at the Bird in Hand market, she notices a vacant booth. Her strict Amish father hesitates to allow her to operate there because they have electricity, but she convinces him she'll use a propane oven. On that first visit she spilled coffee on Jeff whose wood and leather business adjoins the vacant booth. The challenges to their budding relationship sometimes seem insurmountable. Can either of them trust the other? Will her strict Amish father allow it? The novel's theme seems to be God can help you get past your past. I listened to the audiobook. I noticed the reader slowed down a bit after the first few chapters which made its pacing move more like other readers. (It really was a tad too fast at first. I usually listen to audiobooks at 1.25x speed, and I had to pay closer attention because of the really super fast speech until it slowed down to a more normal pace.) ( )

    The Bake Shop is my first Amish literature, but it will not be the last one. I know very little about the Amish culture, and it intrigued me to find out about the Amish culture. The Amish remind a little bit of the Ashkenaz ultra-orthodox Jews with the difference in the use of electricity and the women and men from a certain age are not allowed to touch each other.
    The Bake Shop is a very compelling book. It has the elements of forgiveness and faith is included throughout the novel. It's appealing chapters, memorable settings, and interesting friendships that are mixed in such a way that creates an uplifting experience.
    The Bake Shop has the right amount of charm, struggle, and also romance. This book is a foodie-book that I read that doesn't have recipes. Well, it might be because I got through Netgalley for an honest review. ( )

    Christiana loves to bake, and has a stand to sell her goods in front of her home. When a booth becomes available in an English market center, her cousins, already having their own shops there, talk her into joining them. But it takes some persuasion to get her father to agree to the move. On her first day there, she meets a handsome Amish man by dousing him with coffee, and then discovers his leather shop is next to her bake shop. But gradually, a friendship develops between them. What seems like a perfect relationship is thwarted when her father forbids it. Overly strict and uncompromising, his word is law in that household. What transpires after his edict is a fascinating and moving tale. This first book in the series is well written, has interesting characters, and a lovely plot. ( )
