When Karen Mercer and Andi Swann come to Promise Lodge for a week’s stay, the Kuhn sisters quickly detect the guests are not Plain folk, despite their kapps and homemade dresses. Entranced by the idyllic Amish lifestyle they’ve read about in romance novels, the visitors have gone undercover to revisit the place that was once the church camp where they spent happy summers. They mean no harm—but when the truth is uncovered, their deception has an intriguing impact on the faithful, hard-working
community . . .
Meanwhile, amid bustling preparations for a spring wedding, a shy horse trainer is encouraged to share his colorful world with a newcomer awaiting a miracle . . . while the widowed baker of luscious Promise Lodge Pies sees a long-time friendship in a romantic new light. And in the wake of a destructive storm, Karen and Andi’s insider knowledge of the grounds may offer the safe passage they all need to renew and rebuild—stronger than ever . . .
My thoughts:
From the moment Karen Mercer
and Andi Swann came to Promise Lodge for a week-long vacation, the laughter
started for me. Two very non- Amish girls
who decided to dress and act in what they thought passed for Amish behavior and
clothing was a clever way to put them in the storyline.
Of course, we reconnect with beloved
characters in addition to meeting new ones.
The Kuhn sisters are just as delightful as ever, Mose finally is living
up to his true potential and Sylvia may just finally have a chance to live a
happy, fulfilling life. I have loved
this community since reading the first book, Mennonite, and Amish living
peacefully and harmoniously. That’s not
to imply they don’t have their share of problems, because they certainly do, especially
in this book when a destructive storm rips through the lodge. Luckily, Karen and Andi are there to help.
I sincerely hope this series continues
for a very long time; it is one of the best.
