Publisher Description
With nine years and a turbulent childhood between them, Kendra and Jamie have never been storybook sisters. Now Jamie is offering a gift Kendra has long since given up hoping for, the fondest wish of her heart—a baby. Already raising two young girls on her own, Jamie wants to become a gestational surrogate for Kendra and her husband, Isaac.
In addition to this amazing gift of life, Jamie has designed a new house for Kendra and Isaac and is overseeing its construction on Isaac's ancestral property along the Shenandoah River, with the help of Cash Rosslyn. By giving her sister both a home and a family, Jamie hopes to prove to Kendra that she deserves absolution for her past mistakes.
But when a medical crisis threatens her health and her promising new relationship with Cash, Jamie learns that the most difficult choice in her life is yet to come.

"A Shenandoah Album novel. Jamie has two daughters- Hannah and Allison. She is single. She has invitro fertilization for her sister-Kendra Taylor and husband Isaac. She has twin boys for them in the end. Jamie falls in love with Cash and his grandmother Grace, a quilter. Very good. "

Sister’s Choice Listener Reviews
-
" A "would you, should you" type of story. Most enjoyable, well written. Am enjoying this author. "
— Joy, 3/23/2011 -
" Though set both in the past and the present it's not overwhelming and easily able to keep track of both stories at the same time. A good commentary about the choices we make, why we make them and how it affects our lives. A very good read. "
— Patricia, 2/15/2011 -
" I loved this series, especially this one, a story about the love of sisters. "
— Clocklin, 10/27/2010 -
" I enjoyed this journey. The characters had immense depth. There was a story within a story. It all felt very simple, and yet the storyline was not. This book felt soothing. The author is a former therapist. It shows in the way she writes about relationships. "
— Linda, 8/29/2010 -

" I am reading this book on my Kindle! I am loving the characters in this book. They are so real. I also keep thinking-would I be a surrogate for my sister? I say yes. But I was SOOOO sick during all of my pregnancies. Hmmmm. <br/>This book makes you think! And I love it! "

" The Shenandoah Album set is great, I loved these books! "
— Christine, 3/9/2010 -
" The last (so far) in this series. As with all the Shenandoah books I enjoyed it very much. Great characters as usual that the reader grows to love. "
— Kathryn, 1/11/2010 -
" I have now read 4 books of hers in this particular series. Each book I felt was better than the last. I have enjoyed how each book concentrates on different individuals of this little community, making you feel a part of the community as you get to know your neighbors. "
— Joyce, 1/4/2010 -
" As powerful as the first book and brings the story full circle, tying up some links among the people. A nice touch when two women who learned to hate and avoid each other find comfort in each other's friendship when they are in their 80s. One of my favorites. "
— Terry, 10/27/2009 -
" This is a book that was chosen for the book group that I am in at work. Overall it was a pretty good book. The story was interesting and I wasn't bored with the book. It was a little predicatable, but still ok. "
— Jill, 10/15/2009 -
" It was such a nice change to read something other than a murder mystery and I'm always fascinated by relationships between sisters. "
