Summary: One side of the issue
Comment: Dynah is a young woman who is attending a Christian college when she is brutally raped. When she discovers that she is pregnant, she finds little support from her fiance, her family, or her college and she is pressured by many of them to have an abortion. There is no doubt where Francine Rivers stands on the subject of abortion. She is squarely against it and she uses everything in her writing arsenal to put across that point. Even while agreeing with her viewpoint, I feel that she has not done the topic justice in this book. The plot is very predictable from the very beginning and the characters are one-dimensional. It seems as if every woman in the book has had an abortion at one time or another and that is not realistic. There are several questions left unanswered at the end of the book. Who will take care of Dynah's grandmother? How much support will Dynah receive from her father? How will Joe finish his education? If you want to read better Francine Rivers books, I recommend her Women of the Bible series.

Rating: 5
Summary: A real look at Christian ethics
Comment: Francine Rivers takes the topic of rape and abortion to our doorsteps. It makes you stop and think about your true beliefs. There is a challenge in this book for the Christian community, if crisis hits close to home do we practice what we preach?

Rating: 5
Summary: A realistic book for today's generations.
Comment: Francine Rivers has done it again! I picked up this book almost 4 years ago and finished it in one sitting! I reread it 2 weeks ago and got even more out of the story. The story primarily focuses on a young Christian women in college, who got raped when she was walking home from work. Her fiancee does not know how to relate to her anymore and she is feeling pressure from several sides to have an abortion... something she feels strongly against. The book goes through her walk and has a surprise ending. You will LOVE it!
