Book Description:
Sequel to The Postcard
A Captivating Tale Set in the Heart of Amish Country!

After the dramatic conclusion to his discovery of a long-lost postcard, journalist Philip Bradley simply cannot forget the Amish people he met while on assignment in Pennsylvania particularly Rachel Yoder and her young daughter, Annie. Rachel's cheerful outlook, in spite of her blindness, and her appealing, uncomplicated lifestyle beckon Philip amid the high-paced existence of his New York career.

Philip's newfound knowledge of the true reason for Rachel's loss of sight spurs him on to uncover what he can about the possibility for a cure. In Lancaster County, Rachel has her own ideas about the way her vision might be restored, and it doesn't include the local healer and his black box. Now, Rachel firmly believes the God she serves is the only One who can grant her sight, but as the memories of the trauma she suffered begin to resurface, Rachel questions whether she can bear the agonizing road to recovery.

Drawn back to Lancaster County over the Christmas holidays, Philip struggles with the vast gulf separating him from the beautiful Plain woman. Rachel has suffered unbearable heartache; will his growing affection for her only bring more of the same? Or must Philip and Rachel sacrifice a future together for the sake of all they know and love?

This book is the 2nd book and conclusion in a sequel that included "The Postcard". I liked the 2nd book better. I still liked Beverly Lewis's other books more.

While I do think Beverly Lewis' writing is a little slow moving, I still enjoy the stories. Very sweet love story between an Amish woman and an Englisher.

"The Crossroad" is the sequel to "The Postcard". Rachel who became blind from a terrible accident early in her marriage... may have her vision restored after a journalist, Philip is drawn back to Lancaster with suggestion for a cure for Rachels bindness. Very good book, quick reading, and very hard to put down once you start reading.

I loved this book as I do all of Beverly Lewis's. It was a sequal to the Postcard. Really good story. She is a great christian author. She makes the characters come alive and really helps you think about the spiritual side of everything. Hope she writes a new one soon.
