There are no secrets among Missouri’s Amish community of Promise Lodge, as they share their joys, burdens, and blessings. But two visitors with a hidden agenda bring some surprising revelations—and unexpected saving graces…

When Karen Mercer and Andi Swann come to Promise Lodge for a week’s stay, the Kuhn sisters quickly detect the guests are not Plain folk, despite their kapps and homemade dresses. Entranced by the idyllic Amish lifestyle they’ve read about in romance novels, the visitors have gone undercover to revisit the place that was once the church camp where they spent happy summers. They mean no harm—but when the truth is uncovered, their deception has an intriguing impact on the faithful, hard-working community

Meanwhile, amid bustling preparations for a spring wedding, a shy horse trainer is encouraged to share his colorful world with a newcomer awaiting a miracle . . . while the widowed baker of luscious Promise Lodge Pies sees a long-time friendship in a romantic new light. And in the wake of a destructive storm, Karen and Andi’s insider knowledge of the grounds may offer the safe passage they all need to renew and rebuild—stronger than ever

Praise for Hidden Away at Promise Lodge

Praise for Charlotte Hubbard and Her Novels   "Fans of Amish fiction will love Charlotte Hubbard's series." —Marta Perry   "Hubbard writes of healing and brave new beginnings from a refreshingly feminist perspective...in a lighter way than Beverly Lewis' The Shunning, and in a manner that will please admirers of Cindy Woodsmall." Booklist, STARRED REVIEW on Promise Lodge   "Hubbard excels at weaving a feminist perspective into the daily realities of Amish life...The story goes beyond the stereotypes and describes with sensitivity and tact how strong women can uphold their community's traditions, keep the faith, and forge new futures." Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW on Christmas at Promise Lodge   "[A] charming novel set in a tight knit Amish community...A leap of faith." Simple Grace on A Simple Vow   "Thought-provoking and fresh." Publishers Weekly on A Mother's Gift
