If you love reading contemporary fiction of romance and drama then get your hands on 'The Impossible Choice' by Rita H Rowe. Main character of the story is Mary. It has been more than nine years since she has lost her husband. She is tempted by the young man Lawrence who is nine years junior to her. Mary is a mother of two daughters Lucille and Marina.

She runs Jesse Boarding House. Lawrence first arrived at the boarding house for a stopover on the way to Melbourne. He works for a trucking company. Since Lawrence loved the accomodation at the boarding house, he visited again after a week. Mary's thoughts kept returning to Lawrence. A 29 year old Lawrence and a 39 year old Mary. Read the story to find out if there will be anything between them.

The backdrop setting is lovely. Characters felt real and pulled my attention totally in the book. I loved the title of this book. Rita's writing style is impressive. Her writing has the power to capture the reader's attention. Looking forward to reading more of her works in the future.
