Resumen del Editor

Sent from Michigan to Pennsylvania, Lena Rose Schwartz grieves the death of her Amish parents and the separation from her siblings. But life in Lancaster County won't be forever. Once her beau proposes, she will return to her family. However, she soon discovers that Lancaster holds charms of its own. Is she willing to open her heart to new possibilities?

Lena Rose Schwartz hadn't planned to leave her Old Order community in Centerville, Michigan. But then, she could not have foreseen the accident that made her and her siblings orphans. After her parents' funeral, her younger brothers and sisters are farmed out to various nearby relatives. But when the deacon in charge of the arrangements tells her there aren't places enough for everyone, she agrees to go live with her father's second cousin and his family in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

Beside the fact that Lena has never been more than a few miles from home, she's never met the family she will now be living with. But worse than that is the thought of being separated from her siblings. How will they manage without her to care for them - especially eight-year-old Chris? And what about Hannes Lehman, the beau she was sure would soon be asking her to marry him? It was true that he was not the man her father would have preferred for her. Maybe that was what the deacon was hinting at when he said "a fresh start might do you good".

It won't be forever, she consoles herself. I'll come back as soon as I can to take care of my family - and to make a home with Hannes. But doing so may prove far more complicated than she ever imagined.

Wonderful story!

Gripping story. Sad at the beginning as the lead character struggled with the loss of her family, but as the story progressed, God's hand can be seen working it all out for the good. A good listen!

I loved this book!

I loved this book! I would recommend it to any female reader who loves Amish fiction!

This audio book is a keeper

I have read this book before. The audio is even better .Usually once I listen to a book I don't listen to it again even if it's good. But this audio book I could listen to over & over. It make me want to give God(Jesus) even more control of my life .

It’s a great read or listen!!

Beverly Lewis’s books are always great. This was just another of her wonderful stories about the Amish!!

Beverly Lewis write phenomenal stories

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I do have to admit a bias though.....I own ALL of her books. The only thing i didn't enjoy so much was the narrator. This was my first Audible book of Beverly's. I was not thrilled with the narrator's interpretation of characters. Otherwise, the story flowed beautifully!!

Road Home

Amish story of ten siblings who are separated after the deaths of their parents and the journey it took to be reunited.

Lena Rose is sent to live with relatives in Lancaster County--far from her siblings. How will they manage without her, especially eight-year-old Chris. Although far from everyone, Lena Rose pitches in and helps all she encounters. I enjoyed listening to the story. I was saddened to hear the news of their parents' death but cheered Lena Rose as she took over the care of her siblings. I liked the part when she was remembering a childhood snowstorm and the fun the family had making "snow creatures".
