Love’s Choices

In new romance novel, young woman rediscovers love and must choose between two men

OWINGS MILLS, Md. – After Raven McNeill endures a painful break-up, she accepts that love is not in her destiny. All of the sudden, however, two men enter her life and change everything. In author Laine Highsmith’s new romance novel, Choices (now available through 1stBooks), Raven finds love again and must make choices that continue through this three-part series.

    Content on spending time with her family and friends, she often takes her nephew, Trey, to the park after church on Sundays. This is where Wesley Charles first notices her. He befriends Raven, and they begin dating. However, a painful secret from his past threatens to rip them apart; he has just been released from prison after serving an eight-year sentence for a crime he did not commit.

    At work, Raven is an up-and-coming advertising executive. At an important presentation, a co-worker steps in and unfairly takes over her prepared presentation. She handles it gracefully under pressure. What Raven doesn’t know is that her soon-to-be new boss, Derrick Kincaide, witnesses her professionalism. He is intrigued with her command of the situation. She is curious about why he’s interested in her, and she wonders why she feels strangely drawn to him.

    Choices is a true story of a woman in the grips of love. Raven must decide between a man with a secret or a married businessman. The decisions she makes carry through in the second part of the trilogy, Decisions, and the third book, Consequences. Follow Raven as she rediscovers love, the joy and happiness of life and the often confusing choices it requires.

    Choices is Highsmith’s first published book.
