Light Shines on Promise
Lodge
by Charlotte Hubbard
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Amish Romance/Inspirational
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
For
abandoned wife Annabelle Beachey, Promise Lodge is a refuge where she’s gained
confidence and self-sufficiency. But she and the others are dismayed when newly
arrived Bishop Clayton King claims the community is too progressive and sets
out to change its ways. Worse, her husband, Phineas, returns, expecting her to
give up her faith as he has. And he won’t leave Promise Lodge without her…
But
little by little, Annabelle’s determination and new forthrightness make Phineas
realize his mistakes—and truly hear his wife for the first time. Meanwhile,
Annabelle finds herself feeling compassion—and even renewed love—for her newly
humble, more caring husband. And as Bishop Clayton’s attempt to control Promise
Lodge threatens everything its residents have built, Phineas and Annabelle must
work together with unshakeable courage to save their new home—and their
opportunity for forever happiness.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT TWO:
With
a pitcher in each hand, Annabelle made her way into the crowded dining room.
The tables were close together to accommodate the large crowd, so she walked
along the tables’ ends and had someone pass her the pitchers that needed
refilling. She was stepping toward the table nearest the archway that led to
the lodge’s lobby when the sight of a solitary man in black froze her in place.
Phineas
was watching her, as though he’d been following her progress along the outer
edge of the dining room . . . waiting for her to notice him. He held her gaze
with the pale, penetrating green eyes that had often made her heart thud in her
chest as she anticipated his judgment—his criticism and correction.
The
blood rushed from Annabelle’s head. She wasn’t aware that she’d dropped the two
big pitchers until she heard the noisy clatter of plastic hitting the hardwood
floor and felt ice water filling her shoes.
What’s
Phineas doing here? How did he find me—and what does he want?

Charlotte ~ Good morning! Welcome back! It is so great to have you here again! Congrats on your new book and good luck on the book tour! :)

Ally, thanks so much for featuring my book on your bright, colorful blog today!! We are indeed happy and healthy here, and we wish you—and all who read this—a Happy Easter!
DeleteThanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteHow did you come up with the characters names in your book?
ReplyDeleteBernie, in Amish fiction, character names should—if they are authentic—follow the rather limited list of Amish surnames and traditional first names these folks use in real life. I don't use names I haven't found in my research, or by reading The Budget, which is the national Plain newspaper the Amish subscribe to.
DeleteThanks for following my tour today, Rita!
