Plot Summary of Lifted Up By Angels
"The summer after Leah found out she had cancer and met Ethan, a charming Amish boy, she is in remission and ready to see Ethan again! While her mom and her step-dad go on vacation for the summer, Leah gets an apartment and an job near Ethan's Amish village. Ethan and his family are happy to see him. Well all of his family except his father, who doesn't exactly care for Leah and Ethan's relationship. Etan and Leah spend the summer together and Ethan takes his fling (when Amish teens try "English" things for a while). The summer goes great then right before Leah is to go home, tragedy strikes. Leah goes home, but not before Ethan tells her that he loves her and he will come visit."
Kristian Herron, Resident Scholar

" Leah has taken a summer job at an Indiana bed-and-breakfast to be near Ethan, a young Amish boy who she met when she shared a hospital room with his younger sister Rebekah. Leah's bone cancer has been in remission after a course of chemo and a visit by someone named Gabriella.
As the love between Leah and Ethan grows, they explore the conflicts between the ways of the "English" and the Amish. Ethan even tries some "english" ways, like driving and even eating fast food. The question that still remains unsolved is, whether Ethan will leave the Amish community to be with Leah or will he follow his father's ways and stay Amish?

"

Samantha, Resident Scholar
