Since Anna's death, it had been such a barrier . . . a place and a moment she could not seem to move past. A line I can't move beyond... The River Tilly and Ruth, two formerly Amish sisters, are plagued by unresolved relationships when they reluctantly return to Lancaster County for their parents' landmark wedding anniversary. Since departing their Plain upbringing, Tilly has married an Englisher, but Ruth remains single and hasn't entirely forgotten her failed courtship with her Amish beau. Past meets present as Tilly and Ruth yearn for acceptance and redemption. Can they face the future in the light of a past they can't undo? Review: I loved this book - I loved this book!!! Tilly has left the Amish world and married an Englischer. She has 2 daughters. Ruth is also living Englisch but I'm not sure if she ever joined church. Their dad is ill and their brother asks them to come home for an anniversary celebration. They go, but Tilly and her dad are just not getting along, Tilly tries but her dad rebuffs her efforts. Then they learn that their parents have deeded their farm to their brother and will be moving into the dawdi house on the property The girls stay to help their parents pack up and move next door. Long ago, their little sister Anna drowned in the river and her body was never recovered. Tilly blames herself for her sister's death. I won't give away what brought Tilly and her dad together, but in the end hey reconciled. After the last series that wasn't Beverly Lewis, this was right on the money. Review: YOU CAN GO HOME AGAIN - My only disappointment with any of Beverly Lewis's books are that they come to an end. MS. Lewis is the premier Amish writer of Amish fiction.I have read everyone of her ADULT books. Every book draws you into the story. You feel as if you know the characters. There is always a story line that is so different. Makes you wonder how she thought of this story line and how does she create each character of the book. The River is no different from her other stories. From the very beginning you know that you want to find the secrets of this family. Why did two of the sister's leave their Amish life behind. And what a story it is. I hope that Ms. Lewis will continue to develop these characters into another book. I have more questions about this family and more secrets to be told. Beverly Lewis is the best of the best Amish Fiction. I wish she could write faster !!!!! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #269,292 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #558 in Amish & Mennonite Fiction (Books) #726 in Religious Romance (Books) #16,540 in American Literature (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,403 Reviews | ## Images ![The River - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81dWCV4cmtL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I loved this book *by C***1 on September 6, 2014* I loved this book!!!

This book is really good, and I enjoyed reading it. I only gave it four stars because after reading her last few stand alone novels, I've discovered that I prefer her series more. When she writes a series of novels, it allows her to get more in depth with the characters and the story. These shorter stand alone novels don't allow for that. On the positive side, you don't have to wait for the next book to come out to get the conclusion of the story. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/4525234-the-river](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/4525234-the-river) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
