This book is a Christian, Historical, Western story. Emilie is a widower that is working the farm by herself. When she meets Thad as he has to come her aide, she never thought they would see each other again. When they become smitten with each other, they both have secrets, right down to both of them using different names. They both get caught up in lies and don't know how to fix the issue of telling the truth. Can Emilie go back to her faith and make things right? Will Thad be able to let God guide him?
I would recommend this book to those that want an easy, humor book. It is a story that isn't to dramatic, but just enough drama to keep you interested. This would be a good Hallmark movie.

About the Book
Book: Love in Disguise
Author: Penny Zeller
Genre: Christian Historical Romance
Release date: February 22, 2022
Who knew concealing one’s true identity could be so disastrous?
Who knew asserting one’s independence would cause such embarrassment? If only Almira “Emilie” Crawford Wheeler hadn’t insisted upon carrying her own stack of parcels, she wouldn’t have landed in an unladylike heap on the boardwalk. And what about the half-truth she told the handsome stranger who came to her aid? The stranger she never expected to see again?
Thad Alexander Evanson should have been paying closer attention to the boardwalk, rather than the newfangled automobile motoring down the street. Had he been more astute, a collision with the beautiful parcel-laden stranger might never have happened. And if it never had happened, he wouldn’t have told a partial-truth he figured wouldn’t matter.
Before long, Emilie and Thad are arranging to meet for a noonday meal each weekend in Missoula under the guise of different names. But what happens when their true identities are revealed? When half-truths are exposed? Could God have a plan even in the midst of a tangled web of lies?

More from Penny
In Love in Disguise, the two main characters, Emilie and Thad, are both fond of pie a la mode. It plays a prominent part in the book, especially during Emilie and Thad’s courtship. My inspiration behind the dessert? My aunt’s famous, old-fashioned pie a la mode recipe, which is a family favorite.
