New from New York Times Bestselling Author Beverly Lewis…The Road Home
On April 3, Beverly Lewis, the top-selling author of Amish fiction, releases her new novel, The Road Home. This touching story of family, love, and community will delight her devoted fans and please readers new to the genre with its depiction of the nuances of different Amish communities.
With over 17 million books sold, Beverly Lewis is acknowledged by fans and the industry as a whole as the leading author in Amish fiction. Her most recent book, The Proving, rose to #1 on the ECPA fiction bestseller list and #19 on the Publishers Weekly trade paper bestseller list. Her connections in the Amish community and her own Plain heritage lend an authenticity to her work that is unmatched.
Grieving the death of her Amish parents and the separation from her nine close-knit siblings, Lena Rose Schwartz consoles herself that her new life in Lancaster County won’t be forever. Surely someday soon, she will return to her beloved Michigan settlement, including her beau.

Lena Rose wants to return home as soon as possible, but the challenges that arise test her patience, and because she is so far away, she must also learn to trust God to care for her siblings, as well as her own future.”
To support the launch of The Road Home, Lewis will be embarking on her Spring 2018 Book Tour, April 4–14, which will take her to bookstores and libraries throughout the Midwest. “Touring is something I very much enjoy,” Beverly says, “since it gives me a chance to connect with my wonderful reader-friends!
