  • CHOSEN: A Journey Back To Love

    Alyssa N Coelho

    Hardcover (Alyssa Coelho, Aug. 6, 2016)
    Once Upon A Time... There was a little girl whose beauty radiated with love for everything around her. She burned with a passion to learn, to experience everything, and to embrace it to its fullest and most infinite capacity. She craved life. She was special. She was important. She was connected. She was meant for something big. And she knew it. She was Chosen...for Him, for Love. And Then ... She Grew Up. In Chosen, Alyssa Noelle Coelho has woven the collection of poems she wrote during her 8-year journey back to Love with narrative to encourage and empower other young women who feel confused, angry, and abandoned by Love, and who are trying desperately to find what their soul craves. We spend our whole lives trying to find Love again—in relationships, in dreams, in people, in goals, in experiences. We all get glimpses of it, and some of us get lost along the way, forgetting that the relationship, the dream, the experience, is just a taste of Love...not the whole thing. Yet, as we make our way back to Him, we discover that while we were making choices for us, so was He.

No matter, because I'll do anything to stop the enemy... even if it kills me.Midwest Book Review says of this follow-up to the multiple award-winning Wind Catcher: "As in Wind Catcher, betrayal, faith, and love are themes woven into the thriller format... All is not black and white, and readers move deftly through a gray world of possibilities in a satisfying thriller saga which holds wonderfully unpredictable twists and many thought-provoking moments. Highly recommended for young adult (and many an adult) thriller/fantasy readers who look for solid action, powerful characters, and an approach that breaks the usual genre boundaries to offer something refreshingly different."EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS the second thrilling book in the multiple award-winning "Chosen" series of young adult fantasy thriller adventures.
