Resumo de Ivy's Dilemma (thy Will Be Done)

You will never forget Ivy's Dilemma!
I was fortunate enough to be given an advance reader's copy
of Ivy's Dilemma. I was hooked from the first paragraph.
The action begins as soon as you start reading, and it
never lets up. Here is the gist of the story: Ivy and
Raymond Miller have been married for eleven years. Ray's a
professional football player. And Ivy's a stay-at-home wife
and mother who supports him in everything he does. He and
Ivy lived next door to each other growing up, and in a
sweet gesture when he was ten, Ray asked Ivy to be his
girlfriend. They were sweethearts from that point on, and
when Ray got a scholarship to play football, he would not
leave without Ivy. They were married just before they went
away to college. Eleven years later, Ray has won many
awards as a football player. Their life together appears
enchanted to those looking on, but it's not. Ray became
addicted to painkillers due to an injury, and from there he
tried heroin and got hooked. Try as he might, he couldn't
shake his addiction. His behavior becomes abusive and
erratic. He begins cheating on Ivy. Ivy knows what is going
on, but she wants to save her marriage. She wants to save
Ray. But several stays in a rehabilitation center does Ray
no good. One day, out of the blue, he announces to Ivy, 'I
want you to divorce me.' Ivy is stunned. But he tells her
he isn't going to change. So she has no other recourse
except to divorce him. However, before she can even file
the papers, Ray is involved in a tragic car accident, and
that's when the drama really gets going! Ivy must deal with
her anger at being treated so badly by Ray. Rage colors her
every decision until the most terrible thing that could
ever happen to her happens: Ray dies. Secrets are revealed.
She learns why Ray behaved the way that he did. As she
learns everything, she begins to change, to see why all of
these devastating things have befallen her. Ivy's Dilemma
is so compelling, you won't want to put it down once you
pick it up. The supporting characters: Ivy's parents, her
parents-in-law, her girlfriends, Jade, Sheena, and Miranda,
will all remind you of someone you know. You will laugh,
you will cry, you will cheer the characters on. And you
will never forget it.
