Inn at Eagle Hill #3
The Revealing
Naomi King, soft spoken, loyal, and easily overlooked, has a gift. She sees what others can't see. Intuition, she calls it. Others in Stoney Ridge don't know what to make of it and dismiss her hunches and inklings altogether.
When a young woman arrives at the Inn at Eagle Hill with a shocking secret about Tobe Schrock, Naomi fears the worst. She can't ignore the feeling that something sinister is at work-- something more than a threat to the tenuous love begun between her and Tobe.
As signs mount, they begin to point to Jake Hertzler, the elusive mastermind behind Schrock Investments' downfall. Soon, events spiral hopelessly out of control and Naomi must decide whether to listen to her head or her heart.
In this riveting conclusion to The Inn at Eagle Hill series, bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher pulls out all the stops with a fast-paced tale of deception, revelation, and just the right dose of romance.

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK
I love this series, and I wish that this wasn’t the end of this series. I would love to read more about Naomi King, and all of the characters at the Inn at Eagle Hill. A young women arrives at the Inn with some very shocking news, news that could change the lives of everyone there. Tobe should be coming home soon, but what will he find when he gets there? Naomi is still taking trips to the prison to see Tobe, with her brother Galen’s knowledge, in fact Galen just will not admit that Naomi and Tobe have feeling for each other. And Rose and Galen are not always seeing eye to eye on things, so they break off their relationship. The sisters have a guest, their fourteenth cousin twice removed, and Jake Hertzler is still on the loose.
There is a lot going on in this book, and a lot of loose ends that need wrapping up. throughout the book I kept wondering how Ms. Fisher would pull this all together, but as usual, she does an amazing job. I was on pins and needles throughout the book, just wondering who was gonna do what, and what was happening to another. The relationships here are so real they feel like family, even though I am not Amish. Even after I finished this series, I kept thinking about the characters and wondering how they were doing. This is a wonderful ending to a wonderful series that I highly recommend. I would say that you will enjoy it more if you pick up the first two books in this series and read them all together.
I hope you will this book a try, and I hope you like it as much as I do. I received this book from Revell Publishers to read and review. I was not required to write a positive review.

I received the book free from Firstreads. This is my honest review.
This is the third and concluding book in The Inn At Eagle Hill series. Unfortunately, this is the first one that I've read, and I missed a lot of information about the characters and story line without reading the other two first. I would definitely recommend starting with book one to get the full enjoyment and impact of this excellent book about love, acceptance, forgiveness, God, and family.
Amish life is the background for stories about one particular family and all their different relationships. We have Naomi who is following her heart by visiting Toby in jail without anyone knowing. Toby, who has a secret of his own about his father's death. There is the widow, Rose, who is raising two step-children plus her own two younger boys. Rose's younger boyfriend, Galen, and his steadfastness. And a few other interesting family members who are all affected by a strange young pregnant woman who shows up at the Inn, with her possible connection to Toby. And a couple who meet in the town's cafe, and will affect everyone's lives.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story as I got drawn into the lives of everyone at the Eagle Inn. This was my first experience with Suzanne Woods Fisher, but it definitely won't be my last. I look forward to reading more of her books with fun Godly themes in intriguing circumstances.

The Revealing is the final installment in the series "The Inn at Eagle Hill," a spellbinding conclusion. New characters are introduced while the lives of existing characters develop even further depth as events in their lives evolve. Unforeseen circumstances impact the members of the Schrock family. Shocking remnants from the past rear their ugly heads while developing romances become strained as newly discovered facts are unveiled. Deception is revealed through unsuspected circumstances, placing those involved in compromising positions. The past is playing a destructive role in present relationships and placing significant strain in the lives of all involved with the Schrock family. Numerous unexpected developments present themselves while those affected question which direction their lives will take them.
Suzanne Woods Fisher has concluded this series with a strong story line that piques the reader's interest and holds enough suspense to make it difficult to put the book down. This is not a stand alone novel due to the history of many characters having been developed in the first two books in the series. The character development and maturation throughout the series truly comes through in this final installment, and unresolved issues converge. I thoroughly enjoyed this entire series, and found "The Revealing" to be a very successful conclusion, tying up all loose ends in an unexpected course of events.

I’ve loved all the books in this series and this one does not disappoint, I just want more! There sure were a lot of surprises here, and some will surely surprise you and yet not at the way they are handled, with love and forgiveness.
If you have not yet read the first two books, I highly recommend that you do, and although the author has made it so you can read this one as a stand alone, you miss so much! As in the first book Galen and Rose have an on and off relationship, it is sweet and kind in all aspects, but will they ever marry? Naomi King is surprising everyone with her quiet way and where did all that spunk come from? Tobe is still in prison and grows so much in this story, but will he join the faith, he has straddled both roads?
With all the twists and turns here, you wonder if the book will have all the answers, and yes it did for me. They might not be the way you want them, but I felt satisfied, and although I wish there was more, I really enjoyed this. Some of the things that happen will surprise you, as they did me, and how they all tied together. Others, you will be saying “No Way”, really surprising, like a fourteenth cousin twice removed, ummmm?
This book does have it all, sweet romance, mystery, and full of Amish culture. Enjoy!

Reading this Amish romance was a very engaging experience. It was the last one in the series.
Getting to know the characters, you share the struggles, especially when others doubt intuition.
The book is clean and wholesome, able to stand on its own, but left some unresolved questions.

Loved the ending so such a great series! Now onto the bishops family series! I love anything from Stoney Ridge.

I am so thankful that the library had the third book in this installment. This was such a heartwarming ending to a great series. Again, there are many different characters throughout the book to remember and look out for. Even though, the author did a wonderful job at having each of them finish their own story.

I loved it. But do Jimmy and Bethany get married? What happens to Mim? Does she take over Mrs Miracle? What about Beth Snyder? I need answers! 😂
Ok but seriously can I find out through her other books? Someone help me out please :)

I received this book from Litfuse Publicity for no charge in exchange for my honest review of this book. The opinions expressed here are my own.
Book Description:
Naomi King, soft spoken, loyal, and easily overlooked, has a gift. She sees what others can’t see. Intuition, she calls it. Others in Stoney Ridge don’t know what to make of it and dismiss her hunches and inklings altogether.
When a young woman arrives at the Inn at Eagle Hill with a shocking secret about Tobe Schrock, Naomi fears the worst. She can’t ignore the feeling that something sinister is at work– something more than a threat to the tenuous love begun between her and Tobe.
As signs mount, they begin to point to Jake Hertzler, the elusive mastermind behind Schrock Investments’ downfall. Soon, events spiral hopelessly out of control and Naomi must decide whether to listen to her head or her heart.
My Thoughts:
The Revealing is the last book in Suzanne Fisher Woods series The Inn at Eagle Hill. In this conclusion, Naomi King is very intuitive. She sees and feels things that others can't. Her hunches are always correct and even with that, others in the community don't know what to make of it. Naomi and Tobe Schrock are trying to keep their budding relationship going and Naomi is trying to keep it from her brother, Galen, who doesn't approve of Tobe. A stranger makes her way to Eagle Hill claiming to know Tobe and reveals a secret that shocks the whole family. Naomi's sixth sense has kicked in and really feels that there is something very evil at work, more than just this secret.
As a huge fan of Amish Fiction, Suzanne Fisher Woods is one of my top favorite authors and her Inn at Eagle Hill series is great. I am very sad to know that this is the last book in this series. I have LOVED The Inn at Eagle Hill series, every book better than the last but Suzanne Fisher Woods did a wonderful job wrapping up the series. Suzanne Fisher Woods writes with authority about the Amish, art, and Ohio communities. I loved this series as it brought the readers back to Stoney Ridge to meet new characters but also to get to learn what is happening with the old ones, which I really like. Always hard when a series ends because of the investment into the characters lives so with this series readers are able to find out more. Suzanne Fisher Woods did a great job including the characters from her Stoney Ridge Seasons series and how they are part of the lives of the characters in this one. I loved the characters in this book and this series, they are real characters who go through real life situations and are imperfect. I think my favorite is Rose Schrock, she works very hard to support her family, while doing what she can to pay back the people who were hurt in the Schrock Investments downfall. Rose did what she could to keep her family together and to bless the lives of the guests of her Inn. I really enjoyed this book and this series. This book kept me into from the beginning right up until the end and it kept me guessing until the end. This story has some interesting twist and turns that as the reader I didn't see coming. I have to say that in the end, Suzanne Fisher Woods wrapped up this series in such a way that satisfied my curiosity as a reader. I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend this book and series to anyone who enjoys Amish Fiction, you will not be disappointed. I give this book and series 4.5 STARS.

A beautiful story of love & forgiveness.
July 12, 2014
LOVE IT!!!! I was a little worried when I read that this was the conclusion of this series! I DON'T WANT IT TO END and I'm not entirely happy with the end for just that reason!!!!!!!! LOL! I have LOVED these characters especially Mim a.k.a Mrs. Miracle! I was also afraid, and this is nothing against Naomi because I love her and her story to (I actually love her more so as she grows in The Revealing), that there wouldn't be enough of Mim's story. I was wrong! In fact I absolutely LOVE where Mim's story goes in The Revealing though I'm not particularly found of the questions I still have about where she'll go from here! New characters enter the scene as well as old, including the nefarious Jake Hertzler, and a new guest at Eagle Hill which I had some trouble liking {but as David Stoltzfus says "It's easy to love God,"..."Nobody has any problem in loving our heavenly Father. The problem is to love people who have sinned against us." So true, and while she is a character and hasn't sinned against me, Mim wrestles with the things Brooke does.}, Brooke's Aunt however I LOVE! I REALLY loved and enjoyed figuring out some of the great twists Suzanne sews in before they happen, as well as the ones that completely snuck up on me and blew me out of the water!!! SO much happens in this conclusion! But many questions come out and secrets are, as the name implies, revealed! Who are the new strangers around? Will Jake ever reap consequences? Will Galen ever accept Tobe? Can Tobe set down roots instead of run? And who's gonna marry whom by the time it's all said and done!? I REALLY enjoyed this book, but REALLY want more! I do highly recommend this series and Suzanne is one of my favorite authors! :)
P.S. UPDATE!!! Since I was worried about some of these favorite characters stories staying as cliff hangers I contacted Suzanne and asked if she is going on with them in another series... and she said YES!!! So while this may be the end of this series it's not the end for these characters! And I for one can't wait to see where Suzanne takes them!

For the past year, fans of Amish fiction, faith-based novels, and bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher have eagerly awaited each new release in The Inn At Eagle Hill series and looked forward to getting better acquainted with the folks who reside in Stoney Ridge.
On the surface, life in Stoney Ridge seems so quaint.
Of course – once you dig a little deeper – you discover things aren’t always as innocent as they seem.
In Book 1, The Letters, an Amish widow, Rose and a visitor, Delia, are brought together through a seemingly chance encounter…
In Book 2, The Calling, Rose’s daughter, Bethany and a youth pastor, Geena, develop the unlikeliest of friendships…
Which leads us to Book 3 – The Revealing.
The Revealing is the final book in The Inn At Eagle Hill series, and like its predecessors, the arrival of strangers rock the very foundation on which the lives of our friends from Stoney Ridge are built.
Naomi King is the kind of woman that people tend to easily underestimate. Soft-spoken but loyal, she is gifted with intuition – just the type of thing those in Stoney Ridge are prone to dismiss.
And – Naomi is a woman with a secret.
But, secrets can only stay hidden for so long, and a stranger’s arrival threatens to unravel her life and the life of those she loves.
But – Naomi isn't the only one in Stoney Ridge who’s been keeping secrets…
In The Revealing, Susan Woods Fischer wraps up all of the mysterious loose ends that have been building throughout the series and draws The Inn At Eagle Hill series to a satisfying conclusion.
The Revealing is a great story that’s best read in tandem with the other books in the series. Suzanne includes something for everyone in this book – the perfect blend of mystery, romance, suspense, and diverse characters!
The Revealing – and The Inn At Eagle Hill series – make a fine addition
to your summer reading list!

I often find endings bittersweet. It's nice to see all the loose ends tied up but it's also hard to leave behind a story that you've become so interested in. As with life you often wonder what happens next with these wonderful characters. Of course when Suzanne Woods Fisher is the author these new friends just may jump onto the pages of the next book she writes. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
The Revealing brings The Inn at Eagle Hill series to an end. I enjoyed reading how each love story finally came together. I smiled at the continued antics of Luke and Sammy and enjoyed the addition of Jesse Stoltzfus (and the rest of his family). What I particularly liked about this story was that it wasn't just about conclusions. There was plenty of new drama to be had. New characters appeared and new links to the original tragedy were revealed. In fact there was an ongoing storyline that I had completely wrong. You'd think I would be disappointed that I didn't figure it out right away. Trust me there were clues when I look back on it. Instead I am completely delighted that Suzanne was still able to weave such a great tale after such an extended period of being with these same characters.
Each of the books in The Inn at Eagle Hill series was intended to be a stand alone novel. However, I really think you need to read them all in order to fully grasp and appreciate the complete story going on in Stoney Ridge this time around. So begin your journey with The Letters, which is book one and introduces you to Rose and the rest of the Schrock family. Then read The Calling, which is book two and focuses in on Bethany's story. Then treat yourself to the little novella, The Rescue, whichi isn't totally necessary to the series but it's definitely worth the read. Finally settle in and read The Reavealing,and I then promise that you will come away from the whole series satisfied and eagerly waiting for the next journey that Suzanne chooses to take us on!

The Revealing is a fitting conclusion to The Inn at Eagle Hill series. One thing I love about this series (and really all the books set in Stoney Ridge) is that beloved characters keep growing and evolving and, well, showing up on the pages of the novels! So while The Revealing is ostensibly Naomi and Tobe's story, we readers get to spend similar (if not equal) time with Rose (featured in The Letters), Bethany (featured in The Calling), and Rose's daughter Mim. Suzanne Woods Fisher really has created a world for her novels, and it's so fun to see which characters are going to pop back in!
The Revealing is the perfect title for this novel, as so many secrets are finally brought to light. And while several of the plot threads that have been woven throughout the series come to a fitting (and at times surprising) conclusion, not everything wraps up neatly. I'm hoping that in one of Fisher's future novels we'll finally see Jimmy Fisher—who has been a constant in the Stoney Ridge novels—become successful and get his own happily ever after. And I'm certainly curious about where Mim's story will go!
Amish books tend to be hit or miss for me. (Honestly, it's more often "miss" than "hit"!) Fisher's books are always a hit—great characters, Biblical truth, surprising twists, and a few laugh out loud moments always make me anxious to read whatever she's releasing next!
Note: The Inn at Eagle Hill is a series that you really do need to read in order. So many plot lines are carried over from the first two books that readers who jump in with The Revealing will probably be very confused. You don't need to have read the Stoney Ridge Seasons or Lancaster County series previously.

The Revealing is the perfect title for this novel, as so many secrets are finally brought to light. And while several of the plot threads that have been woven throughout the series come to a fitting (and at times surprising) conclusion, not everything wraps up neatly. I'm hoping that in one of Fisher's future novels we'll finally see Jimmy Fisher—who has been a constant in the Stoney Ridge novels—become successful and get his own happily ever after. And I'm certainly curious about where Mim's story will go!

Crazy good. Though I'm bereft now that I've finished The Revealing and have to say goodbye to this incredible series. Though this is the third in The Inn at the Eagle Hill series you don't have to have read the other two in order to enjoy this one. However, I do think the book will mean so much more if you have. Desperately praying that the author will pick up with a couple of characters in her next books. There are a few who need their own happily ever afters.
Fisher weaves her magic within the pages of her stories which makes all her characters take on a life of their own. They turn into living, breathing people that become friends for life. And oh my goodness this book is rich with a wealth of such characters! I'd be hard pressed to name a favourite...though I could mention a couple of ne'er-do-wells that set my blood to boiling!
A zig zaggy plot will keep you on your toes -- and your emotions yo-yoing up and down, especially if you've read the other two Inn at the Eagle Hill books. I was alternately exclaiming, raging and screeching as things really heated up. All to no avail though -- those stubborn characters would insist on doing things their way!
Honestly, I was breathless by the end. I had to close the book and spend some time savoring all the nuances of a masterfully told story before I could even contemplated starting on another book...and that doesn't happen to me often! The Revealing is a heart-breaking and heart-warming conclusion to a much loved series.

Will the folks at Eagles Hill find peace ? Will those who truly belong together find love and happiness ? Will the secrets of Eagle Hill be brought to the light ? Will Peace come to those who seem to be I loved this book, it has so many relationships and each one its own issues and trials. Being a lover of Amish Fiction I enjoy the setting of Suzannes stories. I love the idea of an Inn and the comings and goings of the folks who visit there, each one dealing with their own trials in life and learning to deal with them by staying with the Amish. I also loved the bit of history woven into each story. The Inn at Eagle Hill Series has kept my attention and The Revealing was a hard book to put down, after all you feel like your right there with them and you become a part of their lives, feeling like your watching everything or like your one of the characters in the book. This makes it so hard to put the book down even if you need to do other things. Oh well its summer and what better , then to sit a spell on the porch swing and enjoy a cup of Sweet Tea or Iced Coffee and pay a visit to Eagle Hill. I must say the suspense and mystery of some of the characters has kept me reading, one just has to find out what the answers are to the secrets these folks are keeping ! You won't want to miss this !

Having fallen in love with the Schrock family in the previous novels, The Letters and The Calling, and novella, The Rescue, I could not wait to see how Suzanne Woods Fisher would wrap up the Inn at Eagle Hill series in The Revealing. Eagerly I flew page after page through this novel to see what would transpire – and it was worth it. This third installment wonderfully concludes the Inn at Eagle Hill series. Fisher fills her plot with surprise after surprise, employing suspense, misdirection and a bit of romance, humor and sweet moments, and nicely, satisfyingly ties up the plot ends involving Tobe, Jake Hertzler and Schrock Investments. At no point within the storyline was I bored, and I enjoyed every moment while reading it. However, I do wish Fisher provided a few more answers in regards to Bethany, Mim and Jimmy Fisher – but perhaps their stories aren’t completely finished yet? I can only hope to see them again in a future novel… To fans of Amish fiction, I recommend reading The Revealing – but I would suggest starting from the beginning of the series in order to best follow the storyline. Don’t worry - all three novels are entertaining, heartwarming, worthwhile reads.

Suzanne Woods Fisher is one of my favorite authors. I always find the characters to be warm, charming, they deal with everyday problems but through their faith. I've never been disappointed in anything that I've read by Suzanne.
Naomi's heart belongs to Tobi. She knows that he was part of the English world for awhile. However, someone drops off a special gift for Tobi and it throws everyone for a loop. Then there is someone claiming to be a relative of the "sister" and wanting to know their history. Is he for real or is he there for some unknown reason. Some things just don't measure up. This is the end of a series and it was nice to see people from the other books. You can read this as a stand alone but it would be better if you've read the others. Either way you will enjoy this heartwarming book. Suzanne Woods Fisher's humor, faith, love of others shows through her writing. I started reading her books about 3-4 years ago and I love her style of writing.
I received this book through www.bookclub.org and the publisher to read and to write a review with my own opinion. The only part of the book I hated was when I turned the page and the book ended. Also, a recipe in the back of the book that looks delicious. Will have to try it. Hope you find this author and book as enjoyable as I do.

The Revealing (Book 3 in The Inn at Eagle Hill Series)
By Suzanne Woods Fisher
The Revealing by Suzanne Woods Fisher is the third and final book in The Inn at Eagle Hill Series. Throughout this series we have read about the Schrock Family, the King Family and many more. Rose Schrock owns the Inn and is trying to make a living despite hardships that have happened from her deceased husbands company. She wants nothing but a good life for her and her family. In The Revealing, Naomi King is hiding something, a secret that her brother, Galen, can’t find out about. Naomi has been secretly going to see Tobe Schock in prison.
Galen is still pursuing Rose Schrock and at the spur of the moment pops the question. In the midst of all this, an unexpected quest shows up at the Inn claiming to be pregnant with Tobe’s child. This is just the beginning to things getting shook up at Eagle Hill.
I absolutely love Amish Fiction and have enjoyed this series by Suzanne Woods Fisher. I highly recommend starting with Book 1: The Letters and then read Book 2: The Calling. You definitely will not be disappointed and will not be able to put the books down.
Thank you to Revell for providing me with a copy of this book for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

Naomi is now a single mom with children and step-children after the death of her husband. Her step-son is in jail and a stranger is making claims that are not only unsettling, but threaten to throw off the entire balance of the family. Life just seems to be more complicated for everyone in the family.
I'm good about reading the description of a book and starting to read it before noticing that it's a book in a series. I did that with this one. So there were several times that I knew it would have been more helpful to have read the first two books. I wouldn't consider this book to be stand-alone. But in spite of my error, I really enjoyed the story. It was fascinating and despite my moments of confusion, it was a great read. The characters are well developed and the plot has lots of twists. There seemed to be several stories going on at the same time, as is typical with large families. But they all flowed well together and made the story more interesting. The writing draws you in and has prompted me to pick up the first two books in the series so I can see what I missed.

How I hate to see this series come to an end! Suzanne Woods Fisher's characters in this series have endeared themselves to me from the very first book, The Letters, and continuing with book two, The Calling. Now she brings the series to a (reluctantly!) satisfying close with this final story. While The Revealing can be read as a stand-alone, it will be all the more richly enjoyed if one has read the earlier books. While this is not a suspense novel per se, Fisher weaves in plenty of emotionally-charged and uncertain moments that kept me eagerly turning pages. A few surprises are tucked into the pages as well. I'm still not ready to bid these characters good-bye and would be delighted to see Fisher develop a third series in this wonderful community. Don't miss The Revealing!

I love Suzanne Woods Fisher's books and THE REVEALING is no different. I am not sure who the story is mostly about - the blurb indicates Naomi. And yes. Her story is told. But it's also about Rose. Galen. Tobe. And Bethany. And Mim. And the sisters. And even an Englischer who came to visit the inn.
There were a lot of unexpected twists in THE REVEALING. Some, I figured out. Some, caught my by surprise. I loved THE REVEALING and devoured this book. My copy is going on my keeper shelf. Fans of Ms. Fisher will want to read the books in this series in order, starting with The Calling and then The Letters. I hope there will be a fourth and even fifth book in this series, as I want to know more about Bethany and Mim.
THE REVEALING is the third book in The Inn at Eagle Hill series. It really doesn't stand alone. A great read. Highly recommended.

The Revealing is my favorite in this three book series by Suzanne Woods Fisher. There are unexpected surprises and turns that make this one a great read. I finished it in two days so I could find out what was going to happen to her characters. She brings together all the tail ends in unusual ways to keep you guessing until the end. Dreams are dashed, plans confused, and hopes dwindled yet the people at Eagle Hill continue in their day to day living as they deal with their lives. I can't say more or I will spoil this lovely book that entertains, delights, and captivates the reader. Find out what happens to the "villain", the prayers offered, and to the new guest at the Inn. You won't be disappointed!

Suzanne Woods Fisher has concluded this series with a strong story line that keeps the reader's interest and holds enough suspense to make it hard to put the book down. This is not a stand alone novel. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and would recommend to everyone!

Naomi King has had my thoughts on her for awhile… what is really going on with Tobe Schrock? Her brother might want to marry Tobe’s stepmother, but he makes it plain that he doesn’t care much for Tobe.
So what is going on between Tobe and Naomi? And how did Naomi get permission to visit him in prison every week? And what will Galen or the Bishop think if they find out?
Suzanne is amazing at filling in gaps throughout this final story in the series, The Inn at Eagle Hill, while creating a few new pitfalls for our favorite families of Lancaster. I love how Suzanne draws me into her stories, even making me feel depressed and wishing I had never begun reading... but somehow I just can't put the book down and by the time it's finished I'm feeling better and can't seem to wait for the next one. Even this last book is filled with drama!
Just when we think it couldn't get much worse for Tobe and Naomi, is does... I can't reveal much (I don't like spoilers) but suffice it to say that love does extraordinary things to people.

Thank you LitFuse for this review copy.
This is the third book in the Inn at Eagle Hill series by Suzanne Woods Fisher. I have really enjoyed it. Like the other books in this series, The Revealing is a mixture of mystery and romance. This book has a greater emphasis on what's going on with the Amish characters than the first one. There's a whole lot of revealing and wrapping up that must be done. The ongoing troubles with Jake Hertzler who was involved with the Shrock Investments scandal and the ongoing mystery of Tobe Shrock's involvement are revealed in this book. I found it to be an interesting and and enjoyable read. I like these people. I like to see the closure that comes from this story, but I'll miss the characters.

As with all Suzanne Woods Fisher's series, I was sad to see this one end. The last in the trilogy, this novel sees the the eldest child (stepson) of Rose, the proprietor of Inn at Eagle Hill, find his way into adulthood. After accepting consequences for his actions in his father's defunct business (no spoilers!), Tobe has to reveal a secret while facing a surprise delivery waiting for him at home. As always, the author spins her story around faith that is tested and tried, and always comes out stronger.
I'm going to miss all the characters in Stoney Ridge. Maybe write some more for us???

This was such a great book but I am not surprised - Suzanne Woods-Fisher is a talented writer!! This is the third book in The Inn at Eagle Hill series. I was a little sad to finish it knowing it was the last book. I would so enjoy reading about the other characters you get attached to in this series! Ms. Fisher writes in a way that draws you into the lives of a family and the inner workings of the Amish. I absolutely love her writing and enjoy her books immensely!! I would highly recommend this book/series to all!!
