Daniels Choice by Frances C. Linscott

Can the power of sincere love create the ability to forgive even the unforgivable? Daniel Shepherd is a professional problem solver who thrives on his work. Getting involved in a relationship is the last thing on his mind. But when Daniel decides to visit his old service buddy, Andrew, for a rare vacation, his world is turned upside down when he finds himself unexpectedly attracted to Andrew’s sister-in-law, Clemence Brooks. Intrigued by the unusual ways Clemence perceives many issues, Daniel decides to take an all-out risk on love. Clemence Brooks has her own reasons for believing a relationship with Daniel is her destiny. Determined to live her life based on faith in God and trying to follow the teachings of Jesus, she throws herself into a fully committed union with Daniel. Joseph Palmer, Daniel’s best friend from childhood, is highly concerned about Daniel’s response to the young woman who appears to have cast a spell on his confirmed-bachelor friend. Troubled by his own pre-conceived suspicions, Joe is determined to protect Daniel at any cost, and sets out to prove that the motives Clemence hides are deceitful and have nothing to do with love. When unexpected situations throw these three people into close daily contact, the choices made by Daniel lead each of them down roads none of them could have anticipated. Eventually, Daniel must make choices that will affect all of them far into the future. What will Daniel choose? Hold on tight for a roller-coaster ride as Daniel, Clemence, and Joseph face challenges and secrets that threaten to overwhelm each of them in a variety of ways. Walk difficult paths with them as they work to practice forgiveness and maintain faith, love, and loyalty in marriage and friendships.
