Shadows of the Past question

It's fiction and if a fictionalized story does not contain conflict then it's missing a key ingredient. And, so this was interjected into your story and as a reader I didn't see it as an us/them statement but as a force of conflict to move the story alone. Within every group, there exists good and evil, as defined by actions. I saw your story as neither an agenda to further an extant idea outside the story nor a hidden propaganda message. I loved the read and can't imagine that those of faith, any faith, or not would be offended by the storyline or shy from it.

I agree with Paulette! the story is fictional and it doesn't have much to do with faith at all but with love and sacrifice. It has to do with what people are willing to do for one another no matter who they are and no matter what faith they are.

Sure it takes place in the church and it has to do with the nun and priest who fall in love but that is just the surface of one piece of the story and if you are only seeing that then obviously you aren't reading the book properly. The book has many different layers to it and I loved it completely.

Faith isn't good or evil people are and no one should be defined by their religion.

I loved the pure heart this story has and the courage that it pulls from the soul. The conflicts, the danger and the intrigue were what brought the story though and I wouldn't change a single word!

I also agree with Paulette. The story is fiction and readers must understand that fiction is fiction no matter what the story is about. There are a number of stories about fallen angels and biblical concepts within but none can be taken as true fact. This is just another book that is not to be taken seriously but as a fun read into a world you Carmen have painted for us to enjoy as readers.
