Sacred Choices

An inspirational love story centered on self-growth, Sacred Choices weaves together the lives of three resilient women.Ceren is a newly-married and pregnant professor who learns her husband is a bigamist who urges abortion. Judith, Ceren's colleague - an older, more worldly professor and pro-choice advocate - provides counsel based on her experiences. Judith's sister Pastora, a nun, provides the voice of reason. Sacred Choices is Ceren's journey - from her positive pregnancy test, through her decision whether or not to have an abortion - to an uncanny conclusion.Sacred Choices has an offbeat charm steeped in the supernatural. The protagonists' search for the answer to whether it is the Aztec goddess Tonantzin or Our Lady of Guadalupe who has been revered for the past 500 years is interrupted by a giggling, young girl, who appears only to Judith. Is she a figment of Judith's imagination, a vision - or could she be an angel, as Pastora believes? Set near Mexico City and incorporating present-day Hispanic and ancient Aztec beliefs, culture, and cuisine, Sacred Choices deeply celebrates the triumph of the spirit.Read reviews at Maureen's Books (http: //maureensbooks.blogspot.nl/2014/04/review-sacred-choices-by-karen-hulene.html) and Reading Shy (http: //readingshy.blogspot.com/2014/04/sacred-choices-by-karen-hulene-bartell.html?m=
