Book one in Suzanne’s brand new series; The Inn at Eagle Hill.

Rose Schrock is a plain woman with a simple plan. Determined to find a way to support her family and pay off her late husband’s debts, she sets to work to convert the basement of her Amish farmhouse into an inn. While her family, especially her cranky mother-in-law, is unhappy with Rose’s big idea, her friend and neighbor, Galen King, supports the decision and he helps with the conversion. As Rose finalizes preparations for visitors, she prays. She asks God to bless each guest who stays at the Inn at Eagle Hill. As the first guest arrives and settles in, Rose is surprised to discover that her entire family is the one who receives the blessings, in the most unexpected ways. And she’s even more surprised when that guest decides to play matchmaker for Galen King.

With her signature plot twists combined with gentle Amish romance, bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher invites readers back to Stoney Ridge for fresh stories of simple pleasures despite the complexity of life. Fisher’s tale of God’s providence and provision will delight her fans and create many new ones. Welcome to the Inn at Eagle Hill.

MY THOUGHTS

I'm always delighted when Suzanne Woods Fisher begins a new series, and I'm doubly excited that this new series takes readers back to Stoney Ridge since I fell in love with this fictional community with Fisher's last series (The Keeper, The Haven, and The Lesson). This is a brand-new series but it's fun to see some of the same characters appear in the scenes of this novel, and Jimmy Fisher plays a prominent role in this story! The Letters brings the Amish and Englisch together with the opening of Rose's inn and the results are heartwarming. I'm already looking forward to the rest of this series!

Thanks, Linda, for reading and reviewing "The Letters" for your readers. Hope you're enjoying the empty nest! Takes a little getting used to...but then...it's kinda nice!

I'll miss you at ACFW this year...getting ready for my son's wedding. Hope to see you in 14!

Warmly, Suzanne
