Binge drinking, date rape, family secrets, and teen pregnancy collide in Choices, a compelling and bumpy coming-of-age journey that hurtles fifteen-year-old Kara MacNeill into a state of panic, fear, and confusion. A sophomore at an all-girls Catholic academy in Colorado, Kara finds herself crossing the line into womanhood after an arrogant high school basketball star rapes and impregnates her, and then urges her to get an abortion. Facing life-altering decisions and a major confrontation with her conservative Catholic parents, Kara discovers the allies that will help her to deal with her crisis and recover from her mistakes. Choices is the powerful story of a teenage girl who learns to think for herself, take responsibility for her choices, and discover a solid sense of self along the way. "I loved Choices! After working with teenagers for over twenty years, the characters and situations were so believable that I couldn't put it down. I've watched too many young girls experience this kind of trauma and the consequences. Choices is a book that will encourage a deeper understanding and dialogue about these very prevalent and disturbing teen issues." -Terry Steege, women's health care nurse practitioner
