One young woman. Two very different roads. The choice will change everything. Even as a pregnant, unwed teen in 1974, Sandy Lincoln wanted to do the right thing. But when an ageless woman approached her in a convenience store with a mysterious prophecy and a warning, doing the right thing became even more unclear. She made the best choice she could . . . and has lived with the consequences. More than thirty years later, a pregnant teen has come into her life, and Sandy’s long-ago decision has come back to haunt her. The stakes rise quickly, leaving Sandy with split seconds to choose once more. But will her choice bring life . . . or death? “. . . A moving tale of a mother’s love for her unborn children cast against the specter of culture wars. Heartrending and triumphant.” — Billy Coffey, author of the highly acclaimed Snow Days and Paper Angels

"God says "Greater Love has no one than this; to lay down one's life for one's friends in John 13th and the main character Sandy demonstrates in this book through her "choices" - her choice not to abort her baby, her adoption choice, her choice to put her own life in jeopardy later on in the book. Robert Whitlow writes so well and I so enjoy how he shows time and again in his books the way God intersects lives and how God works ALL things out for HIS Glory!!"

" I am all for a nice, melodramatic, life-changing, makes you think sort of book. When I first picked this book up, that was my expectation. However, I was saddened, especially by the second half of the book by the number of times I was hit over the head with a pro-life Christian agenda. Everything works out perfectly for the can-do-no-wrong teen mother turned high school teacher. It was sickening and toward the end, I was flipping pages so I could just finish the thing. Also, the stereotypes were over the top and ridiculous. The way this author portrayed Hispanics was almost rude and I wasn't a huge fan about how this high school seemed to fulfill every stereotype ever. There wasn't much to this story, nor is it something that changed my life. "
— Anisha, 2/3/2014" Hated this book, very biased reading material. "
— Sophia, 2/3/2014" Loved this book. Whitlow did a wonderful job illustrating how God uses our mistakes, our suffering, and our experiences for His glory while tackling a politically charged subject and maintaining the intrigue of the legal suspense genre. "
— Kimm, 1/12/2014" This book was so good, I could not put it down. I read the whole thing in one day. Once again, Whitlow has spun a story that is realistic in today's world, but is totally fiction. Great read. "
— Janice, 1/9/2014" I just finished this book and I am still thinking about it. I have never read a book by Robert Whitlow, but this one was great!! The plot was original and the cast of characters were so authentic. I really enjoyed this book and I will be looking into more books by this author. "

— big, 12/12/2013" Fantastic book! From the first chapter, I could not put it down, and I read it cover to cover in a day. It is definitely a must read! "
— Tara, 10/17/2013" A compelling story of a young girl who is faced with the choice of having her baby or having an abortion. So good. A real page turner. "

— Diane, 7/24/2013" I am thoroughly enjoying this book. The teenager's unplanned pregnancy is weaving a web of drama. Can't wait to read on! "
— Donna, 4/21/2013" Good story, good writing until the very end and then felt the story wrap-up very quickly. If you are a Robert Whitlow fan you will like book. Great to her the choice was to give life not end it. "
— Becky, 12/26/2012" my first Whitlow and I will be going back for more. Very real characters and very moving story. "
— Michele, 12/10/2012" I appreciated the pro-life point of the story, but it didn't come across as very real to me; the ending seemed just a little too contrived or coincidental. "
