A religious married man falls head over heels for another woman. His obligations toward God and his wife prevail. But an event shatters his beliefs and compels him to decide between both women.
Salvador, a Mexican seminarian, abandons his studies to marry Rosa. When the enamored couple expects their first child, their shop goes bankrupt. The loss urges him to migrate to the US. He promises to reunite his wife and their child with him as soon as possible. On his way to an L station in Chicago, Salvador witnesses an assault on Elisa, a coworker. He rushes to her aid and suffers life-threatening knife wounds. Salvador falls in love with Elisa. But family duties and obedience to God prompt him to leave her and bring Rosa and their child to the US. Salvador fights an uphill battle to forget the other woman. An unexpected occurrence rocks his marriage and religious faith and forces him to choose between Rosa and Elisa.
This novel has been in the making for a long time. I wrote the first manuscript in 2003 and registered it at the US copyright office on 10/12/2005. It has received input from several editors, but I finally completed my work during this pandemic. I believe my readers will enjoy it.
