Our next book club meeting will be on Tuesday May 17th at 7pm on Zoom.

The book is called Two Weeks by Karen Kingsbury. Here is a brief synopsis;

If only she could go back and paint the picture of her life differently. Elise never would've talked to Randy at that party. And she wouldn't be pregnant.

Cole Blake is months away from going off to college to pursue his dream—a career in medicine. But as he starts his final semester of high school, he meets Elise, a mysterious new girl who captures his attention—and heart.

Elise is determined to mend her wild ways and become the good girl she used to be. But not long after the semester begins, she discovers she’s pregnant. Eighteen and alone, she shares her secret with Cole. Undaunted by the news, and in love for the first time in his life, Cole commits to support Elise—even if it means skipping college, marrying her, and raising another man’s baby.

When Elise decides to place her baby for adoption, she is matched with Aaron and Lucy Williams, who moved to Bloomington, Indiana, to escape their painful years of infertility.

But as Elise’s due date draws near, she becomes focused on one truth: she has two weeks to change her mind about the adoption. With Cole keeping vigil and Lucy and Aaron waiting to welcome their new baby, Elise makes an unexpected decision—one that changes everyone’s plans.

Tender and deeply moving, Two Weeks is a story about love, faith, and what it really means to be a family.
