According to the book description of A Hard Decision, "William and
Zera were childhood sweethearts who got married after high school. That's where
the joy in their lives ended! William was off to fight in Vietnam, in service to
his country that asked thousands of young men to give up their lifestyles to
become soldiers. Like so many other families, William and Zera's lives were
uprooted and changed forever. Torn apart by the war, they tried to hold on as
best they could. When news came to Zera of William's death, nothing could repair
the pain she felt. Time seems to heal all wounds and soon Zera met Steve.
Although she felt uneasy about it, Zera began dating Steve and they were
married. Many years passed before Zera got the shock of her life. One day, there
was a phone call, then a visit. When Zera opened her door, of course who should
be standing there but William! Zera couldn't believe it. Neither could Zera's
current husband, Steve, who actually served with William in the war. Zera was
forced to make "a hard decision" Who to continue her life with? Could you make
such a choice? So, who does Zera choose? And what shocking conclusion does the
author keep hidden until the very end? The book is a tribute to the spirit and
strength of every human being and what makes people do the things they do. There
is something with which every reader will be able to identify. The book combines
love, war, loss, family, friendship, death and all of the elements of daily life
that anyone could humanly experience."
