Book Review and Giveaway- Love in Disguise Author: Penny Zeller On Tour with Celebrate Lit

 

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.

My Thoughts 

Love in Disguise is a Christian Historical Romance that is written by  Penny Zeller. This is the first book that I have read by this author, and it will not be the last. Her writing flows nicely, and you can feel the story come alive off the pages. 

This book is set in 1911 in Montana. Emilie wants to assert her independence and is insisting on carrying her own parcels. Thad was not paying attention to where he was going. He was watching the new automobile that was traveling by,. The two of them crash into each other. However, neither one of them are completely honest with each other about their identities, I found this comical because they did not expect to see each other again. Emilie is a widow, and meeting Thad has given her a new spark in life. However, Emilie has strayed from God. Thad invites her to church and Emilie is a little uncomfortable. 

The book is well written. The characters are well developed. The author writes great descriptions to
