Sinopse

In "Neva's Choice," Harriet Lewis intricately weaves a compelling narrative that delves into the complexities of identity and agency within the framework of contemporary societal constraints. Set against a backdrop of a small, insular community, the novel employs a lyrical prose style that captures both the beauty and the suffocating nature of its environment. Lewis expertly employs character-driven storytelling to explore themes of self-discovery, familial loyalty, and the sometimes-agonizing path to autonomy as Neva grapples with pivotal choices that will shape her future forever. The book stands as a poignant commentary on women'Äôs roles in society, resonating with feminist literary traditions while also innovating upon them in striking ways. Harriet Lewis, known for her incisive explorations of personal and social dilemmas, draws from her own upbringing in a secluded community to inform the emotional depth of her characters. As an accomplished writer and advocate for women'Äôs rights, her experiences navigating cultural expectations inspire the core conflict within "Neva's Choice." Lewis's background in sociology lends an analytical perspective to her storytelling, allowing readers to fully engage with the nuanced interplay between individual desires and societal pressures. This remarkable novel is recommended for readers seeking an introspective journey that challenges normative narratives around choice and consequence. Lewis'Äôs powerful prose and thematic depth make "Neva's Choice" a vital addition to contemporary literature and an essential read for anyone interested in the intersections of identity, gender, and personal freedom.

She’s seeking answers to her mess of a life but finds the irresistible and hot Josh Hamilton—Dylan’s brother.

Unable to resist her unintentional charm, he ignores the promise he made to his brother to steer clear of the dark-haired beauty and gives into temptation. Josh never intended for anyone to get hurt—after all, he and Kyla agreed that rebound sex was the best kind of one night stand. But Kyla’s choice will hurt someone…if they survive the threat that lurks outside their cabin.
