The Browns at Mount Hermon

Mary Brown may have fortune and beauty, but she’s the loneliest heiress in town. She longs for a family and close friends who will like her for herself, not for her bank account. Then she receives an unexpected invitation to spend the summer at Mount Hermon, a Christian camp in California. It doesn’t take long for Mary Brown, the heiress, to realize the misdirected invitation is actually meant for a different Mary Brown—but that doesn’t stop Mary’s imagination from running wild.

Before she can change her mind, Mary is on her way to California, determined to spend her summer living in a tent at Mount Hermon ... even if it means she must pretend to be the “other” Mary Brown. It’s a radical change for Mary, and she enjoys every minute of her new life. But is a summer at Mount Hermon the only change Mary needs, or must her soul be made new, as well?

This edition includes a biography of the author, group discussion questions, and an introduction to Isabella Alden's books by Christian author Jenny Berlin.
