The Forbidden by Beverly Lewis (2008)

I have read Beverly Lewis's "The Parting" and could not wait to read her second installment of the series. "The Forbidden" drew me in even more than the first in this series and now I am anxiously awaiting the next. Her characters are portrayed in a way that you feel that you are in their midst...she is a wonderful writer; one I would recommend to anyone! "The Forbidden" is perhaps the best one of hers that I have read so far...I could not put it down.

Beverly Lewis' books are captivating. I can't wait for her next book in this series. If you like inspirational fiction, you will like this book. The Amish lifestyle is fascinating.

the stories are so real ,it actually feels like your there.I decided to buy this book because I like beverly lewis's books, she is an awesom writer.I'm looking forward to her next book.

I have always loved Beverly Lewis. The Forbidden is a great book, with a clear message of salvation. I love the way the characters open their hearts to trusting in our Lord and Savior! I can't wait for the next book in the series!

I love the way Beverly Lewis, shows us the daily life of an Amish couple.
Caleb Yoder and Nellie Mae Fisher , are a couple , but they must face the differences between them to stay together and in love, will the last?

I decided to buy the book because I have always wanted to see how the Amish were in the works and writings of a former Amish person. Beverly Lewis was once Amish, growing up and from her experience she shows us what its life in that kind of family Setting.
I also love the way it shows how the Amish people are able to survive like people growing up in the 1800's- without electricity, cars, modern day stuff. Imagine going to work in a buggy and a horse that pulls you- you will surely have an excuse to be late.

What I didn't like about the book is that it keeps you wondering what will happen, so we have to buy the next book in October. The third book will be the Longing. In which Nellie longs to be with Caleb. Overall this book was a great Book, and you won't want to put it down.



Also recommended : Karen Kingsbury's books, Tracie Peterson, and more Beverly Lewis books. Enjoy and happy reading all.

The book is a good bookon the Amish. Continues story that began in Courtship of Nellie Fisher.
That is why I bought it.

This is a wonderful story - can't wait for the next one!! I am amazed by the in depth knowledge of the Amish that Beverly has. She makes every book interesting and this is no exception. I would highly recommend to BL fans!
