  <default_description>A beautiful repackaged edition of Francine Rivers's classic novel that breaks through the many taboos surrounding abortion. In one terrifying moment, Dynah Carey's perfect life is shattered by rape, her future irrevocably altered by an unwanted pregnancy, and her doting family torn apart. Her seemingly rock-solid faith is pushed to the limits as she faces the most momentous choice of her life--to embrace or to end the untimely life within her. &lt;p&gt;This new edition includes discussion questions for individual or group use.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I'm not quite sure where to begin.  This is of course an amazing story, as Francine Rivers is a truly gifted author.  This story leads you into the subject of abortion through the life of Dynah Carey.  Whether you are pro-life or pro-choice, this book will touch you.  The author truly does look at t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/47436880">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I read this book in about 24 hours--I couldn't put it down.  I read it while I was still at Asbury, and because of where I was attending school at the time, this book really resounded with me.  The main character is attending a Christian college and dating the &quot;ultimate&quot; Christian man.  He...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/4644387">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[One of the best books I ever read. I put this book off over and over, but once I finally picked it up, I couldn't put it down. This is one book that sticks out in my mind that I truly had such a deep connection with the characters. I found myself thinking about them days after finishing the novel.

    <body><![CDATA[This book is a book that I think all in my family would like.  It's a christian based book, and is about a girl who is raped, ends up pregnant from that rape, and then is pressured to abort the baby.  She has been raised to not believe in abortion.  She talks with God throughout the book to help gui...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/54345204">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is AMAZING and well worth the read. It really speaks to God's mercy and the power of accepting his forgiveness.  My only warning would be to any one that has been touched personally by abortion.  I suggest reading the author's note in the back first before reading the book so that his/her ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/50125341">more...</a>]]></body>
