Publisher Description

Lancaster County has always been her home--but where does her heart belong? One moment Carrie Weaver was looking forward to running away with Lancaster Barnstormers pitcher Solomon Riehl—plans that included leaving the Amish community where they grew up. The next moment she was staring into a future as broken as her heart. Now, Carrie is faced with a choice. But will this opportunity be all she hoped? Or will this decision, this moment in time, change her life forever? A tender story of love, forgiveness, and looking below the surface, The Choice uncovers the sweet simplicity of the Amish world—and shows that it’s never too late to find your way back to God.

    " I did rate this book quite highly and will finish the trilogy. I think Fisher is a fine writer; I enjoyed this much more than any Beverly Lewis book I've read. "

    " This a really good book. I loved the whole story line. Did I say I love Amish Fiction? Well I do & I have sworn off it because that is all I read if I don't. So was hesitant about reading this. But I loved it. The ending was a little quick but it had to end somewhere & it didn't hurt the story any. "

    " It was good, not great. I enjoyed learning a little more about the Amish culture. I thought the book was a little shallow. The story had potential, but not the writing had no depth. I couldn't feel for the characters, it lacked true emotion that you would expect from a love story. "

    " This was a good book that kept moving at all times. There were no unnecessary drawn out chapters or scenes. Carrie is a young Amish woman who is handed some very rough life changes. How Carrie handles these choices and sometimes regrets is a great story. "

    " Very good read. The author did a great job developing each character. Through all the twists and turns of love and life you could almost feel the heartache of each person as the story went on. Of course, after the heartache comes the renewed love which also came across like a rainbow after the rain. "

    " It was pretty wishy washy on the religion. It didn't portray the Amish as ALL being on the same page in their beliefs. There were "stages and levels" of how strict they were. And the "bible" being used wasn't KING JAMES and so that added even more confussion, "

    " I really didn't think I was going to like this book. I had just finished reading a book with a lot of hot and horny so I wanted something to simmer down with. This book was enjoyable, I felt myself relating to the main character even though I don't know a thing about the Amish. I'm glad I read it. "
