Beverly Lewis is an author I don't believe you'll be sorry that you read. She keeps you on the edge of your seat with every turn of the book. I had a pastor's wife recommend Beverly Lewis to me about five years ago. My first encounter with Beverly Lewis was in


From there I checked out every book I could of Beverly Lewis' at our library. Yep, you guessed it I'm a fan. Thanks for writing Beverly. I've also read some of her YA books to my daughter.
