Christian romance

The Englisher

by Beverly Lewis

Book 2 of the Annie's People series

346 pages · First published 2005

Annie Zook has promised her father that she will abandon her forbidden art, while her friendship with Englisher Louisa Stratford continues to expose her to possibilities beyond the expectations of her Old Order Amish community. Louisa is herself reconsidering the life she left behind, making the two women’s choices mirror one another in unexpected ways. Romantic relationships and community discipline complicate Annie’s attempt to determine what obedience should cost. Beverly Lewis’s second Annie’s People novel continues a Christian Amish story about art, belonging, and the difficult boundary between honoring a community and suppressing a gift.
