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.
ISLAND BREEZES
Life is getting a bit boring trying to sort through years worth of stuff accumulated by the five sisters. That is until the frightening find in the basement.
It takes Jimmy Fisher a long time to talk Bethany into going back into the sister’s house. It isn’t long before the sisters have her helping with their volunteer work. Even the guest at the Inn at Eagle Hill gets involved.
Bethany begins to enjoy her volunteer work (except for that one angry teen). She’s also beginning to enjoy Jimmy Fisher’s attention a bit when her ex-boyfriend shows up.
Once again that ex messes up people’s lives – including Bethany’s. Hopefully she’ll see him for what he is this time.
I’m really enjoying The Inn at Eagle Hill series. I hope they never stop.
