With a tagline - "Could you choose between your marriage and your child?" - you can guarantee that there will be drama and the main character will definitely have a few decisions to make in the book. Karen Eastman has a child who has a debilitating illness and there are very few options to help him overcome the disease - one being to have a child that is a "perfect match" to allow for a true bone marrow transplant. After tests are run, Karen learns things about her child and her family that will set this family down a very rough road. At the beginning another storyline of the Health Secretary and his wife's struggle to get pregnant is paralleling but for a moment the reader is unsure when they will intersect and how it will affect each couple.

Pretty interesting topic; just too many parallels between the different couples involved which makes stories not as interesting as it doesn't involve character development. I was just interested to find out what happens in the end and it doesn't end up happening the way I thought it would.
