Book Two in the Inn at Eagle Hill series.
Bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher delivers her trademark twists, turns, and tender romance in this delightful and exciting visit to the deceptively quiet community of Stoney Ridge.
Twenty-year-old Bethany Schrock is restless. Her love life has derailed, her faith hangs by a thread, and she is spending the incredibly hot summer days wading through a lifetime's accumulation of junk at the home of five ancient Amish sisters. About the only thing that holds her interest is the spirited and dangerously handsome Jimmy Fisher---and he seems bent on irritating her to no end.
When the sly old sisters and a guest at the Inn get Bethany involved in running the local soup kitchen and starting a community garden, she suddenly finds herself wondering, Shootfire! How did that happen? Despite her newfound purposefulness, a gnawing emptiness about a childhood mystery continues to plague her. Encouraged by Jimmy Fisher, she will seek out the answers she craves---and uncover a shocking secret that will break her heart, heal it, and point her to love.

My Thoughts
Bethany Shrock still suffers from the betrayal of a man she thought was meant to become her intended. So she keeps herself busy helping at home which is also the Inn at Eagle Hill. Her family is trying to put their lives back together after the unexpected death of her father and the disappearance of her brother.
Bethany is been offered a job which becomes a task much bigger than she could ever have imaged. She has agreed to clear the clutter from the home of the elderly Amish Sisters so they can take their turn in having church in their home. But that many take a very long time.
Jimmy Fisher has been coming around to visit Bethany trying to draw her into conversation. She has no use for any man. The last man in her life broke her heart. Besides she has always found Jimmy very annoying even if he was handsome. She had other things to do like help with the guest at the Inn and helping the elder sisters with all of their projects which includes a soup kitchen.
I have been anxious to read book two of this series.You see, I became very attached to this family and their community. The author's Shrock family characters, were held together by together by four determined women, each withholding secrets. This made for a suspenseful story and more than one blooming romance.
God must have been guiding the author's heart as she wrote this book. I actually read this book in one day. Now I am ready to read her next book.
I highly recommend this book.
I rated this book a 5 out of 5.
Disclosure: I received a free copy of this book from Revell/Litfuse Group Tours for an honest review.
