Choices — Noah Gordon

With Choices Noah Gordon brings to a close his great trilogy spanning the generations of the Cole medical dynasty.

Beginning with the legendary 11th century doctor Robert J.

It emerges again in the present, but for the first time in a daughter, Roberta Jeanne d'Arc Cole, known as R.J.The first time R.J. defies her beloved father is when she is born a female; the second, when she opts to study law rather than medicine. Yet destiny is to overtake her when R.J. realises that she has inherited The Gift.

She became a spirited and gifted physician, but she forgoes a stellar career at a prestigious hospital for the tranquility of private practice. But her life changes when she moves to a small town practice and she finds even greater challenges than those of the big city. Now she faces her hardest test as a doctor and a woman: whether to keep the medical secret of a girl who has desperately turned to her for help, or to betray that trust to keep the love of the man who has filled her life with unexpected joy....
