Sandy Lincoln, popular cheerleader, dating a football player
finds herself pregnant her senior year in high school. Despite the temptation to abort her baby, she
decides to carry him to term. Her
boyfriend deserts her and she must make a temporary new home with her aunt in
another city and another school. As her
pregnancy progresses, she begins to think that she is carrying twins. At a gas station a stranger approaches her
and tells her that the babies must be separated at birth. Sandy follows this advice and the boys grow
up ignorant of the fact that they each have a twin.
Sandy goes on to establish a successful life for herself as
a teacher, but still wonders where her boys are and how they have fared in
life. She becomes involved in helping a student who is pregnant and in a twist
of fate she meets one of her sons and then the other. She must decide if she should reveal her secrets.
I have been a Robert Whitlow fan and have read all of his
previous books. This one, however, left
me disappointed. The writing seemed flat
and I had to force myself to finish the book.
It did pick up speed and suspense in the last 30 pages, but previous to
that I read out of duty and not enjoyment.
I appreciate Mr. Whitlow’s underlying message, but thought that his writing
didn’t carry it effectively. If you are
a Robert Whitlow fan, stick with his other books. I appreciate the publisher giving me a free
copy and this is my honest review.
