The Forbidden by Beverly Lewis

The Courtship of Nellie Fisher - book 2. Nellie's beau, Caleb Yoder, is torn between his love for Nellie and his fathers forbidding him to see her because of the association with the "New Order" beliefs differing from the Old Amish ways. Nellie has sworn to remain true to the Old Amish ways and her family are embracing the New Order allowing them to believe in Jesus and study all the bible themselves. Caleb stands to lose his inheritance and being shunned by his father and family if he continues to see Nellie. A complicated and heart warming story of change in the life of a community where things usually stay constant. Sandy Penton
