Revolution at Barncastle Inn: Lily Mitchell’s sister organizes a Patriot’s Day vacation at the Barncastle, with the entire week’s activities set in Revolutionary War days. Lily’s husband was killed in Afghanistan two years ago, and she’s found it hard to move on. A fun vacation where Lily’s family joins Vermont “Patriots” takes her mind off her grief—until one of the “Redcoat” officers quartered at the inn draws her attention. Ethan Danvers is a modern day history professor who enjoys eighteenth-century re-enactments and makes a very convincing British officer. Though they oppose each other in the re-enactment, Ethan makes a special connection with Lily and her son. They’re enemies for the week—but will they be allies for life? This novella is part of the Celebrate Any Time series, a novella collection with threads of romance and Christian faith. In the original 4-book collection, Christmas at Barncastle Inn, the Barncastle family began offering vacation plans at their Bed and Breakfast. The guests choose the historic time period in which they want their vacation. Whether it’s a pirate Christmas or a colonial-era Patriot’s Day, you can celebrate any time at Vermont’s Barncastle Inn. It all begins in Love Comes to the Castle, by Susan Page Davis. Others in the series include Spring at the Barncastle, by Lynette Sowell, and Showdown at Barncastle Inn, by Janelle Mowery.
