Choose Me tells the story of life after betrayal, and what a woman must do to save her heart and sanity.
Justina is rescued by her paternal grandmother and moves to New York City at age five. Weeks before her high school graduation, she learns that her grandmother is dying and her mother, whom Justina resents, is dead. When Justina returns to her native island, she meets her maternal family and a father she knows only by name. She also meets Vaughn Sinclair, whose smile and gentleness seduces her. In surrendering to Vaughn, Justina breaks a promise she made to Josh Wolf, her high school sweetheart.
Justina returns to America, graduates and fulfills her prom night promise to Josh. He dreams of an interracial marriage but will not defy his parents. Justina is smart, ambitious and pragmatic. Will she give Josh the time he needs or will her disappointment prove to be too overwhelming?
After her grandpa suggests she help an illegal immigrant, Justina meets and marries, Andrew Chou, a total stranger. There are lines that must not be crossed in order for this union to work. But living in close quarters soon blurs those lines and puts their marriage of convenience to the test. Can it survive a night of passion? And when Andrew returns home for a funeral and is reunited with an old girlfriend, can a distracted husband remain faithful once his head has been turned?
Twenty years later, Justina is a successful doctor. Fate intervenes. The three men she has loved are together in one place. She must choose. Is Andrew, with all their history, still the man for her? Now that she knows Vaughn's true identity, can they recreate their dream romance? Josh was her first love. Can a first love last a life time?
