Publisher Description
Best-selling, award-winning author Beverly Lewis pens inspiring novels filled with hope, courage, and compelling truths. In this engaging tale, she reveals the warmth, uncomplicated lifestyle-and sometimes dark side-of the Amish people of Pennsylvania's Lancaster County. Journalist Philip Bradley can't forget Rachel Yoder, the blind Amish woman he met while on assignment in Pennsylvania. He is determined to find a cure for her and to get to know her better. But before Rachel can move on in her life, she must first confront traumatic memories. Can their growing love survive the vast gulf between their different worlds and Rachel's agonizing road to recovery? A gifted storyteller, Beverly Lewis draws on her childhood in the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch country and her mother's Amish family heritage to create realistic situations. Narrator Barbara Caruso vividly brings to life Rachel's setbacks and victories as the young woman struggles to move from the darkness into the light.

Quotes

“As Lewis capably shows, the Amish community in Lancaster County is endangered by tourism, which causes crafts to be more profitable than farming and changes the community’s internal structures. Rachel meets a worldly journalist, Philip Bradley, and love stirs. But since Rachel cannot abandon her faith, can Philip find happiness on the farm?”
— Booklist -
“Ms. Lewis continues to charm her readers with her understanding of the Plain People, Amish culture, and her knack of weaving mystery and romance.”

" I liked this collection okay. I enjoyed Beverly Lewis' stories much better than the one that she wrote with her husband. Not her best stuff, but not horrible either. "

" This was another "okay" book. It's better than "The Heritage of Lancaster County" series, but still not up there with the other series. "
