Beteween You and Me Book Review

I put a bunch of books on reserve a long time ago and this one was another that was chosen because I like the author.  I was interested in reading anything by the author but I haven't even figured out what was coming until it showed up on my reserve shelf.  Between You and Me by Susan Wiggs was the next in my pile to read.



Deep within the peaceful heart of Amish country, a life-or-death emergency shatters a quiet world to its core. Number-one New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs delivers a riveting story that challenges our deepest-held beliefs.  Caught between two worlds, Caleb Stoltz is bound by a deathbed promise to raise his orphaned niece and nephew in Middle Grove, where life revolves around family, farm, faith—and long-held suspicions about outsiders. When disaster strikes, Caleb is thrust into an urban environment of high-tech medicine and the relentless rush of modern life.
Dr. Reese Powell is poised to join the medical dynasty of her wealthy, successful parents. Bold, assertive, and quick-thinking, she lives for the addictive rush of saving lives. When a shocking accident brings Caleb Stoltz into her life, Reese is forced to deal with a situation that challenges everything she thinks she knows—and ultimately emboldens her to question her most powerful beliefs.  Then one impulsive act brings about a clash of cultures in a tug-of-war that plays out in a courtroom, challenging the very nature of justice and reverberating through generations, straining the fragile threads of faith and family.
Deeply moving and unforgettable, Between You and Me is an emotionally complex story of love and loss, family and friendship, and the arduous road to discovering the heart’s true path.

I hope that you check out this book because it was an amazing read.  I couldn't put it down which is horrible because I couldn't put the last book down and now I am in a horrible sleep pattern but I have read some great books.  Only pick this book up if you have the time to not put it down or getting anything else done.  I thought it was great and I was amazed at the writing and characters.  Caleb has left the Amish world when he got the call that his brother and wife had been in an accident.  Caleb came home to raise his niece and nephew.  It is amazing to see how he has changed his life to make the best life for his niece and nephew.  Things go a little crazy when there is an accident and a disagreement over treatment.  Dr. Reese Powell is on the ER staff and takes an interest beyond the initial operation when she sees Caleb standing in the ER because no one has helped him find his nephew.  Their lives all change in the blink of an eye and you have to pick up the book to find out how.  It was a great journey and amazing story.  I hope that you enjoy it as much as I have.
