I've read Beverly Lewis before and usually enjoy her books. This book focuses on the Esch family--mostly on 3 sisters: Frona, Eva, and Lily. The parents have died and now, their youngest brother, Menno wants to move his family in to the house--and only one of the sisters can stay on with them. Lily decides to leave the Amish community (without telling her family) which causes her sisters, particularly Eva, much grief. Alfred has designs to court Eva but then decides to go learn woodworking at a relative's in Wisconsin. Eva meets Jed when he comes to learn at the local buggymaker's shop. Their is attraction there but his visit ends in miscommunication when Eva discovers he's been carrying around a picture of the missing Lily--a picture that he found on the bus on his ride to the community. So the book is somewhat an Amish romance, but it is also about the grass looking greener on the other side not always being true. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Beverly Lewis is an amazing author! There is never that moment that you are holding the book and wondering if you should read it. It's more like how can I shift my schedule so that I can start reading it right away. A warm family story with the angst of the young on the edge of spreading their wings. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I enjoyed reading this book by Beverly Lewis which I received from Bethany House Publishers through the LibraryThing Early Reviewer program. The Amish lifestyle is interesting and I enjoyed the characters. I recommend this book for a light, cozy read. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML: Eva Esch and her sisters are in a predicament. With the passing of their widowed mother, Eva's older brother plans to move his growing family into the Eden Valley farmhouse where they all grew up, leaving little room for his three single sisters. Unless they marry within the year, the only apparent option is for two sisters to go to Indiana to live with an elderly great aunt. Eva hopes to be married, but she isn't sure she wants to give up her sweet shop for the life of a farmer's wife. And she can't see how her prospects would be any better in Indiana. When younger sister Lily disappears in the night, leaving only a brief note, Eva fears she has been wooed away from the People by an outsider. And when Jed Stutzman, a young Amish buggy maker from Ohio, shows up at Eva's market stand in Lancaster with a photo of a Plain young woman, Eva's world begins to tilt. She feels powerfully drawn to the quietly charming strangerâ??but the woman in the forbidden photograph is no stranger at all ... Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

One thing I enjoyed, as I do with many of her stories, is that Lewis makes it possible for me to get so wrapped up in the culture of the Amish that I don't realize what time period the story is actually taking place. Besides the reference to Omar wanting to vote for Reagan, you'd never know whether this took place in 1894 or 1984.
I've got her newest novel sitting on my desk to start sometime soon. After this redeeming book, I can get excited about it now! ( )
