With the arrival of three unexpected newcomers to Stoney Ridge comes an array of secrets and emotions brewing just beneath the surface.

Supervising two newly minted medical residents might be the toughest challenge Ruth "Dok" Stoltzfus has ever faced. Wren Baker, sharp and ambitious, graduated at the top of medical school with a hidden agenda in tow. Charlie King, at the bottom of the class, is determined to succeed--though Dok isn't convinced he's got what it takes. Then there's traveling nurse Evie Miller, whose quiet love for Charlie doesn't go unnoticed, especially by Wren.

Boarding at Windmill Farm, the trio struggles to balance modern medicine with Plain living. Between medical emergencies, cultural misunderstandings, and brewing romantic tensions, Dok finds herself juggling far more than she bargained for. Soon the stage is set in the small Amish community of Stoney Ridge for plenty of professional and personal complications.

A Hidden Hope by Suzanne Woods Fisher once again takes us back to Stoney Ridge and the practice of Ruth “Dok” Stoltzfus, where we meet three brand new characters that bring some closer to this incredible series. But I’m hoping more will be coming!

Each new character brings new twists and turns for Dok and the reader. When two residents and one nurse are unexpectedly plopped on her doorstep, Dok struggles to teach them and instead relies on the reliable Evie, a nurse she immediately connects with.

I loved Charlie and his willingness to dig in and do what he could to help improve the Dok’s practice. While Wren did everything she could to prove she was meant for a better place than Stoney Ridge.

We also catch up with Annie Fisher and her desire to be an EMT. This time, however, something is holding her back, and her dreams of being with Gus might be affected by it.

Lots of twists and turns in this one and more than one romance. I loved it!

As always, I love Fisher’s books. This one is no exception.

I always enjoy coming back to Stoney Ridge, and I never want to leave.

Fisher does really well with this book. She weaves some pretty tough subjects and makes them so realistic that you find yourself praying or hoping for that character.

We have 3 new characters in this wholesome story. I rather liked all of them.

I think Charley has to be my favorite, with Evie next, followed by Wren. All are eager to learn. All have secrets. These secrets are what kept me turning the pages to see what happens next. I wasn’t disappointed at all!

There are some laugh-out-loud places and some sad ones, too.

The cover is mysterious, which is why I grabbed this one. But I love Fisher’s stories, anyway.

I hope to continue coming back to Stoney Ridge. I miss it when I'm not reading her awesome adventures.

I enjoyed getting to know these new characters. I didn’t want to say goodbye, but I had to.

5 stars from me for a job well done!

Excitingly, Suzanne Woods Fisher takes us back to Stoney Creek. Dok’s life continues as she welcomes new residents to help with her practice. At the suggestion of her husband Matt, of course. 

Enter the story of Wren, a driven new doctor ready to make her mark on the world. She is driven and downright bossy. A know it all and ready to take over. She reminds Dok a little of herself back in the day.

Charlie is a sweet and caring doctor. He takes time to really sit with the patients and make them comfortable. His character is easy to love, and you will find yourself rooting for him.

Evie is a nurse who has a caring and compassionate heart. She came to the Amish country to be a travel nurse because of her Mennonite roots. As wonderful as she is, she has a secret crush. Will anything come of it?

Going back to Stoney Creek is an exciting treat. All the lovable characters that were in the last book come alive again. It was a treat to go back and discover more of the town. This story had some twists and turns. It was a page-turner.

A complimentary copy of this book was provided by Revell Baker Publishing Group through Interviews & Reviews via NetGalley. All opinions are mine alone.
