Book Description

Secrets of Forbidden Love: My True Life Story chronicles the improbable love story of Cándida and Father Andrew and their struggle to be true to themselves in the face of immense cultural and religious scandal. It is a moving story that documents the daily choice that each of us must make: Either to live a life that honors the truth of who we are or to live other people's lives and expectations. This story is about the former and the intense joy and suffering that accompanies this choice. This book is also about the emotional and spiritual maturation of Cándida as she survives child abuse, discrimination, and sexism. Cándida discovers that she is more than a peasant girl from the remote village of Las Limas, Honduras. She discovers an inner strength that forces her not only to survive but even to thrive in the most horrifi c circumstances. Most importantly, this book is about the power of love and forgiveness. Cándida does not allow her pain and sorrow to harden her heart but she allows it to transform her. Rather than developing a heart of stone, she embraces a heart of great compassion. In the tradition of famous Spanish authors, such as Gabriel García Márquez, Secrets of Forbidden Love explores the nature of true love. However, unlike Márquez, love is not found "in the time of Cholera" but in the dreams of a poor peasant girl who found out that she was much more than she ever imagined.
