Summary

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.

Best-selling 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.

if you not tried her books

Ms. Fisher has a way of telling stories, that makes you fall in. You want to go and meet the people, turn into one of her towns people. She brings people back. Thank God for this gift of stores she has shared with her reader's.

Engaging story, but a little dark.

I like Suzanne’s reading and her stories, but there’s a little too much darkness in them. Some unnecessary and twisted deaths and twisted people. I also think the bishop would be more involved in some of these situations. But where would be the story if they fixed everything? Christina Moore does an excellent job of performing the parts, but her voice is not suited for teens or kids. I don’t enjoy her narration of these stories.

Stay true to your calling

I enjoyed the older ladies who kept doing good even though old. Schizophrenia is not the bad malady the author thinks. There is so much they can do today for it and most do not end up being put away for good. Also, a husband and family should never not be told about what happens to the mother of the family. Other than that, I enjoyed it because it was different. Women often are overlooked in the ministry unless you become a nun.
