Choices

Skyy

Set on the campus of Freedom University, a historically black college in Memphis, Tennessee, the lives and choices of four women are intertwined.

Sexy and smart, Lena Jamerson has her whole life planned out for her. The daughter of two of Freedom’s most prominent alums, it is a given that she will fulfill her Chi Theta Legacy as well as become engaged to NBA-bound Brandon Redding, or is it? With wealth, prestige and a beautiful body she could choose anything … even someone new..

Denise the reserved women’s basketball champion has no time for dating. Her only choices are grades, game and becoming the first in her family to graduate, until a sexy stranger enters her life, causing her to reconsider her options. Playa of another flava, Cooley sparks curiosity of her own with women on both sides of the orientation fence. Will the choices of her past prevent the romance of her future? Meanwhile, Carmen’s choices have given her a new exterior and a new lease on life. Can her sexy new shape get her into Chi Theta and a new romance? Or will the same internalized insecurities keep her from finding the love she deserves?

In the school of life and love, what choices would you make?

Review

From the first few paragraphs of Choices you become so attached to the characters and storyline that you can’t put your eyes to rest, not even to blink. The ever charming and handsome stud Cooley captivates you with her cocky attitude and at times, chauvinistic opinion towards women. She states to her best friend Denise, (the more focused and seemingly sensitive of the two), ”There’s always time to chase tail.” Denise, however, is the exact opposite. Playing basketball and focusing on her studies are most important to her and after experiencing a bad break up, chooses to lead the safe, single life. That is, until the gorgeous but very straight ”silver dollar” Lena captivates her attention and possibly changes her thoughts on dating and love again… –The MYNE Spotlight, pmyner.com
