Amish Of Marigold Books in Order

Amish of Marigold feels like Kathleen Fuller bringing some of the rom-com energy of her later work back into Amish fiction. The series is set in Marigold, Ohio, and it has a slightly brighter, more playful tone than some of her heavier family sagas, though the emotional problems are still real.

The first book, The Courtship Plan, follows Charity Raber, who moves to Marigold determined to find a husband after an earlier humiliation in Birch Creek. The Proposal Plot turns toward Nelson Bontrager and Ella Yoder, with a deli business, unwanted matchmaking, and a plan to help him find the right wife that does not go the way either of them expects. The Marriage Pact adds a fake-relationship angle for Daisy and Perry, which tells you a lot about the series mood.

This is Amish fiction with a wink.

What keeps it from floating away is the setting. Marigold still operates like a real community, and Fuller's characters still have to answer to family, faith, and reputation. The humor comes from personality and circumstance, not from making the Amish world feel flimsy.

Readers who enjoy strong-willed heroines will probably do especially well here. Fuller gives these women ideas, plans, and sometimes terrible schemes, then lets love complicate all of it. The men are often baffled, sometimes stubborn, and usually better people than they first appear.

If you want newer Kathleen Fuller Amish novels that feel lively and approachable, this page is a good guide. Marigold offers matchmaking, business trouble, fake courtship, and the steady reminder that God's plans rarely line up neatly with human ones.
