The Path: A Novel

Cristian Vega has a talent very few people know about: he's a musician. And he's quite good. The problem he faces is that he has no confidence in himself and is overly concerned about what others think of him, and this fear of rejection has turned Cristian into an introvert. The day after his nineteenth birthday, Cristian receives a call from his girlfriend who tells him that she's met someone else. Confining himself to his bedroom, Cristian has become an emotional wreck and vows to never allow himself to fall in love again. After calling his cousin in an attempt to get his mind off of his ex-girlfriend, Cristian sets in motion a chain of events that will change his life forever. And it all begins with the meeting of a girl... Emma Turner is quite sick of dating the same kind of man-tall, clean-cut and handsome-and every guy she meets seems more interested in trying to impress her than they are in learning anything about her. When Cristian Vega begins attending the same church as her, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him. None of her friends understands her attraction to Cristian and they are sure to tell her that every chance they get. Emma's problem isn't in getting her friends to accept Cristian, her bigger issue is in getting Cristian to admit his feelings to her before the successes of being a musician tears them apart. THE PATH tells the story of overcoming one's fear of rejection in order to pursue one's dream regardless of what may come.
