Rain Dance

Jonica and Staci meet in a doctor's office at a critical turning point in each of their lives.

What draws me: The idea that a woman bent on abortion and a woman who can't have kids befriend each other. And meeting in a Dr.s office to boot. I am so pro-life, this is a book I would love to win. Can use it in many different scenarios with with women contemplating abortion.

I would like to read this book because of some of the reviews I've read. This is an emotional and controversial topic, and I would like to see how the author resolves the relationship between these two women with such contrasting views.

Thank you for the giveaway, Margaret.

Being infertile is such a hard subject to discuss for alot of women unfortunately. My friend Kim is infertile, and they have tried for many years with no success which is sad.
I would love to pass this book along to Kim as it is sure to be an excellent read!

What pulls me is how these two women meet and how it is obviously no coincidence that one wants to terminate her pregnancy and the other is infertile. Definitely can see God's hand in this.

The plot. I've had a lot of friends deal with inferitlity and abortion and would be interested in reading it.

It sounds like a very touching book. The subject is definitely sensitive and something that would be a challenge for anyone to deal with. Based on the summery, I would like to see how the characters are able to help each other and form a friendship that it sounds like they may both need very much.

The poignancy of having to start a family is enough to draw my attention.

I am pulled to it because of the abortion issue. Abortion is painful. :(
