It was interesting to read about Elizabeth&#8217;s experiences on her own living with an Englisch friend. Some of her experiences with modern appliances and devices were humorous and she learned a lesson or two when she tried dating an Englisch man. I enjoyed watching Elizabeth&#8217;s confidence grow as God seemed to place her in exactly the right place numerous times.<\/p>\n<p>The story moved along at a good pace and contained several interesting characters that included Elizabeth&#8217;s friend Paula and her new boss Saul. As expected, Elizabeth finds the romance she has always yearned to have and the book ends pretty much as expected.\u00a0 It is a story about following God&#8217;s plan for your life and should appeal to those who love Amish fiction.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10857\" title=\"divider2\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\" width=\"317\" height=\"61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png 317w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2-150x28.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>This book was provided for review by LitFuse Publicity.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-16419\" alt=\"A Road Unknown\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/A-Road-Unknown.jpg\" width=\"248\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/A-Road-Unknown.jpg 248w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/A-Road-Unknown-96x150.jpg 96w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/A-Road-Unknown-150x232.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 248px) 100vw, 248px\" \/>Book 1 in the new Amish Roads series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Elizabeth is at a crossroad. She\u2019s been given the chance to experience life outside of her community, away from the responsibility to care for her eight younger siblings, but Elizabeth Bontrager can\u2019t decide which road to take. Goshen has its charms and pressures, but Paradise, Pennsylvania, sounds . . . well, like paradise. And it\u2019s also home to her Englisch friend, Paula. Decision made. Elizabeth is Paradise bound.<\/p>\n<p>But will the small town live up to its name? When Elizabeth meets Paula\u2019s friend, Bruce, she quickly learns he wants more than a friendship. And the same might be true of Saul Miller, her new boss at the country story that sells Amish products to the Englisch community. As the two compete for her attention, Elizabeth is surprised to realize she misses her family and becomes even more uncertain about where she belongs. She has a choice to make: return home or embrace this new life and possibly a new love?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1bNfksB\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Purchase a copy here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"about_author clear\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"max-width: 250px; height: auto;\" alt=\"Barbara Cameron\" src=\"http:\/\/litfusegroup.com\/wp-content\/authors\/BCameron-192.jpg\" width=\"187\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Barbara Cameron is a best-selling author who has a heart for writing about the spiritual values and simple joys of the Amish.
