About the Book

Title: Hunting The Amish Witness
Series: Amish Country Justice #20
Author: Dana R. Lynn
Publisher: Harlequin Love Inspired Suspense
Release Date: July 29, 2025
Genre: Romantic Suspense

A witness in hiding.

An enemy with a vendetta.

After discovering her best friend’s dead body, Miriam Troyer knows two things: the killer is the same man who murdered her husband…and he wants her dead. With the culprit in pursuit, Miriam goes on the run with her baby and seeks refuge in the Amish community she left behind. However, after an attack leaves Miriam with no memory, Caleb Schultz, a man from her past, must step in to protect her and her daughter. But the criminal is determined to silence Miriam for good and will stop at nothing to get his revenge.

My Review

Like any good, suspenseful read, Hunting the Amish Witness pops off within the first few sentences, and we are off on a tense adventure, trying to piece together why Miriam is being hunted, which becomes increasingly difficult, especially when Miriam is attacked and ends up losing her memory. It’s up to Caleb, an old childhood friend, to help her sort everything out while protecting Miriam and her sweet baby girl, Ella Mae, from an unknown assailant.

The Love Inspired Suspense series is so great as it plunges readers into a new world so quickly that it’s easy to get lost in the narrative, especially when you add an intriguing premise as well as engaging characters that you can’t help but root for. I appreciated the faith aspect as well as the page-turning urgency I felt the entire time I was reading. This world felt familiar, like a cozy blanket to my soul, almost like I knew these characters personally. Both Caleb and Miriam have been through so much that you can’t help but want the best for them.

This ending was truly touching and left me with a smile on my face. There’s nothing better than a satisfying happily-ever-after after such a rollercoaster of a story. I always enjoy Amish fiction so much, and this novel was no exception. A quick read with depth as well as heart? You can’t ask for anything more.

My Rating: ★★★★★
