I received a copy of When Girlfriends Make Choices by Savannah Page in exchange for an honest review.

What a tangled web we weave! Lara, what are you thinking?

This was an emotionally stressful story based on the subject matter. Lara, being the most level-headed one of the girls has herself caught up in an affair with a married man! I was so emotionally invested in this story that I actually wanted to go into the book and have a good chat with this girl because of her choices… She knows it’s wrong but she is such an emotional mess that she can’t seem to help herself, because she’s in love.

Thank goodness for her friends who aren’t afraid to tell her what they really think about the situation and to help pick her up when she needs it. The solution should be so simple really, but affairs of the heart never are.

A really good read about right and wrong and, like it or not, how our emotions can sometimes lead us to make the wrong choice.

What do girlfriends do when one of them strays off the path and engages in forbidden love?

Twenty-nine year old Seattle advertising executive Lara Kearns' life is on the right track except she hasn't found true love yet. When co-worker Paul MacKenzie starts flirting with Lara, she thinks she has found "The One" and falls in love with him, only to discover that Paul is married! Faced with the reality that their love relationship is really an affair, Lara has to choose which path to take: stay in the affair with Paul or walk away heartbroken. It's not always easy to make a decision when the choices are difficult, especially when it includes an affair of the heart!

When Girlfriends Make Choices is a emotional story about love, loss, heartbreak, choices and difficult life lessons. In the third book of the When Girfriends ... collection, author Savannah Page introduces the reader to Lara Kearns' story of forbidden love and difficult choices. Written in the first person narrative, Lara shares with the readers her emotional and difficult tale of falling in love with the wrong man. When her life spirals out of control as her head and heart battle over what's the right thing to do, she has the support and tough love of her close group of girlfriends to help her through the tough time and get her life back on the right path.

This provocative tale is written in a witty style that makes the reader sit up and ponder the choices that they and their girlfriends have made in their lives. It's a realistic story that deals with a difficult and taboo situation, infidelity, that unfortunately does occur between men and women. I applaud author Savannah Page for weaving a tale from the "other woman's" viewpoint, Lara's angst and emotions over her forbidden love for Paul is palpable, and her struggle between making right and wrong life choices is one that anyone can relate to in some time in their life, even if it isn't in regard to an affair of the heart. And just like the first two books in the collection, Lara's close knit group of five girlfriends rally around her with support and tough love to help her make the right choice in her life.

When Girlfriends Make Choices is an enjoyable and realistic story of love, friendship, emotions and life choices that is a must read for all women!

When Girlfriends Make Choices is the third book in the When Girlfriends ... collection.
