The Calling – Book Review

The Calling

The Calling by Suzanne Woods Fisher is the second book for the Eagle Hill Series. But you don’t have to read book one to fall in love with book two.

I have to say that I’ve been reading Suzanne Woods Fisher for over a year now and love her characters. The books may be different settings but she keeps some of the same characters, such as Jimmy Fisher. Jimmy Fisher was just a mischievous boy, always getting into trouble, when I met him in another book long ago but in The Calling he is a grown man wanting to settle down and do what’s right.

The Calling’s main character is Bethany Schrock. Bethany is still lost from her break up last year and is trying to find her calling. A guest at Eagle Hill, an Amish home that accepts guests, helps Bethany along her journey. All the while Bethany and Jimmy grow closer and closer. This books offers some suspense and mystery to keep you on your toes and the journey of a young woman finding her way.

About the book:
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.
