Review: Decision to Love by Michelle Sutton

Have you ever been faced with adultery?  

Have you been through the process of having hopes and dreams for your child to have them instantly change due to your child having something completely opposite in mind?

Have you ever thought all hope is lost for someone or when a crisis arises?

If you answered yes to any of the above, you are not alone.

Decision to Love by Michelle Sutton is a book which deals with topics on adultery, sexuality, faith and forgiveness. Although the story is fiction, the messages and storylines are realistic in many families. This book is not for the conservative and uptight. It is for those who do not mind speaking on today’s issues and confronting them head on. I must warn you if you are insensitive to the truth with absolutely no sugar coating, or speaking on sexual content this book is most definitely not for you.

The story begins eight years after Tony and Hope had an affair. He was arrested for the murder of his ex-wife Brenda with whom he has a ten year old son after she called him to come over to her house. He married a woman named Kristy after Brenda so his son could have a mother figure only to find her in bed with a woman. He did not know Christ and had no intentions of learning about Him until he found himself in a horrifying situation. Tony is reunited with his daughter for the first time and gets a surprise.

Hope and James are a Christian Married Couple with a son name Jimmy who is in college and does not get along too well with his father. James had given Hope his approval to write a book regarding her affair with Tony and the sexual problems which led her to the turning point in their marriage. Hope has to deal with the tension between her husband and her son. Her son confides in her and pleads with her not to tell his father.

Jimmy is tired of being pressured and teased by his father about why he is not dating girls. He is confused about his faith, life and love. He makes some decisions out of anger he later regrets. He is also the one to link Hope and Tony back together.

Decision to Love had my attention from the very beginning.As you go through each scenario, you can literally envision each scene as if it were a movie. Michelle discussed topics which are desperately in need of and also I feel others are afraid to speak on. Although there were moments when the grammatical errors in the kindle edition were a bit frustrating, it did not take away from the story. There were also moments when things were a little too explicit and I felt the point could have been made without some of the obscene expressions. The goal is to show you are to never give up on someone and to never stop praying for them. You are to love and forgive them just as God loves and forgives us. During the course of all the trials, Michelle’s objective was to bring it all back to Christ.

Prayerfully, Decision to Love will be an inspiration to those who may find themselves in this sort of circumstance to keep on praying and loving those who are being misled.
