Book Reviews of Choices (Indigo Love Spectrum)Book Review: Choices and Consequences (RAW Rating: 3.5) Summary: 4 StarsOne can come to expect with any interracial romance the jeers and condescending attitudes of others, and CHOICES by Tammy Williams is no exception. As would be expected with any romance novel, boy meets girl and everyone lives happily ever after, however with CHOICES, getting to the happily ever after is a process.
Lara Boyd is an African American teacher in a small town of South Carolina. In her charge is Justin Andrews, the son of Ryan, a Caucasian book illustrator. During their first meeting the sparks are instantaneous and unrecognizable to both. Justin, a child who is usually shy, takes a strong liking to Lara and blossoms into a budding student. When Ryan and Lara's relationship progresses from parent-teacher to friendship, to a full-blown relationship, friends, family and foes get in on the action and all hell breaks loose.
Tammy Williams' story is endearing because of the characterizations and the development of them. What appears are realistic behaviors of the secondary characters and the responses given by the main characters. The dramatizations highlighted by the families are humorous and at times, pathetic. Watching all work their way through the maze of conflicting emotions and truthfulness incited the romance that much more and forced you to pick a side. CHOICES is an honest and wholesome portrayal of individual mindsets when two come together from different racial groups.

Summary of Choices (Indigo Love Spectrum) Choices is an engaging, light-hearted, contemporary story set in coastal South Carolina, where an African-American woman and Caucasian widower find love, opposition, and a surprising ally in the ghost of a deceased spouse. Lara Boyd is a woman who has lived the last six years happy in her career but unfulfilled in her personal life. An unanswered ultimatum given by her ex-fianc? left her uncertain and tentative, but when Ryan Andrews and his young son, Justin, enter her life, making choices and living with them takes on a whole new meaning. Choices is the theme running through this story. Lara's fear springs from a choice she couldn't make years before, and the story opens when Justin makes the choice to meet his teacher, thereby bringing Ryan and Lara together. By the end of the story; Lara, Ryan, and Justin are all making even bigger choices because of their deep love for one another.
