On my nitestand

Last week as I wandered through the Christian bookstore this novel jumped into my hands. Although my intentions were shopping for others I KNEW I could not put this book back on the shelf. 

Now, I sit here at my computer and attempt to share the novel with you in my own words. I'm struggling and can not come close to describing the plot the way the author does.  So, I have decided to cheat....is this legal?

Perhaps you will feel as compelled to read the book as I did? You SHOULD put it on your 2011 Christmas wishlist, don't you think?

Nobody’s Child by Austin Boyd        


Unprecedented choices never intended by heaven . . . unintended consequences never before seen on earth
Brace yourself for this gripping introduction to The Pandora Files—a new series of biotech suspense novels by award-winning techno-thriller author Austin Boyd.
Experience the trials of Laura Ann McGehee—Determined to honor her father’s dying request, the young West Virginia woman will do whatever it takes to save the family farm, including using the one remaining financial resource she has—her body.
Meet Sophia McQuistion—Thanks to the unusual sacrifice of a woman she has never met, she carries the child she could never conceive. Walk in the shoes of Ian Stewart—In Laura Ann’s time of need, he’s more than just a close friend. He is a source of grace, a man who loves Laura Ann through her many trials.
When unusual circumstances place Sophia’s baby in Laura Ann’s care, Laura Ann is now the virgin mother of her own biological son. The media call him “Nobody’s Child.” But somebody wants him badly enough to steal the baby. What price will a mother pay to save her only son?
Weaving together bioethics and faith, Nobody’s Child dramatizes a future that is already upon us with consequences we can no longer avoid.

Thanks for the book review Jess! Sounds like a great book. Emotions must run high from reading this book. May have to try and find it. Sue U.
