Michael's Choice: Sequel to "The Gift" Kindle Edition

by Barbara Avon (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
5.0 out of 5 stars (8)
**Michael Rossi is back!**

After the death of Ottawa's first serial killer, things in the city are just getting back to normal. The city's imposed curfew has been lifted, the nervous energy in the air has started to dissipate and demolition has begun on Hayden's Amusement Park. After suffering at the hand of Stevie Phelps, and putting the pieces of their lives back together, Michael and Nicole Rossi are living the dream. Business at Michael's Place is booming, their daughter, Maria, is just learning to walk and the newlyweds are more in love than ever. Without warning, the dream is shattered. A brutal murder takes place and everyone deems it the work of a copy-cat killer. Just like Stevie Phelps, known as "The Carousel Killer", had done with his victims, the killer removed the victim's eyes. Nicole panics and slowly retreats into herself until Michael starts to believe she is seeking comfort in the arms of another man. Then, one night, he overhears a conversation in his restaurant that makes his blood run cold. Phelps continues to haunt the Rossi family, forcing Michael to make a choice. A choice that will change everything and help them emerge from the nightmare that has become their life. Making the wrong choice, Michael soon realizes, is truly the only way out.

This book reads as a standalone story.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. - Pablo Neruda.

Barbara Avon grew up Italian in the Niagara Falls Region and attended Notre Dame High School, and then Brock University. In 1999, she moved to Ottawa to pursue work and has worked for two major Ottawa area magazines. Being a shy kid in school, she created stories in her head, and when her Grade 9 English teacher awarded one of her short stories an A +, she knew that she would one day write a novel.

Avon is a multi-genre author. She’s written Romance, Romantic Thrillers, Time Travel, Mystery, Horror, and Paranormal Romance. Her work appears in various anthologies including Steering 23 Publications, and Beyond the Levee, and her stories have been regularly featured on the Spillwords Press website. In October of 2022, “Revived” was chosen as “Horror Book of the Year” by the “Feed My Reads” community, and in February of 2025, "Sultry Is the Night", received the Literary Titan Gold Medal Award for Fiction. In April of 2025, Avon won the Editor's Choice Award for Literary Excellence from Reader's House Magazine. Her work has also appeared in Publisher's Weekly Magazine.

When she’s not writing, she’s experimenting in the kitchen with her husband, spends her time reading, and watching 1980s movies, and always lives with her characters in her head while working on her current novel. Avon has quoted: I believe in magic. Books are magic. Love is the most remarkable magic.

I received this book as a gift from Barbara Avon. It is a great sequel to The Gift. In this book we get to see Michael evolve more as a husband and father. I loved how Michael and Nicole are with each other and even in not so good times they find a way to heal their marriage. I experienced anticipation and fear and protection, hoping that things would turn out well for Michael and Nicole. The book was well written. I loved the cover. I would recommend The Gift and its sequel Michael's Choice! I give this book 5 stars because I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Thank you again Barb for the gift!

    I read The Gift followed by Michael's Choice, by Barbara Avon, and loved them both.
    I was hooked from page one of the first book, The Gift, and couldn't stop reading until I finished both books. The author's excellent pace and character development have made me want a book three (and four, five, etc.) – hint to author – just to spend more time with Michael, a handsome man – he is strong, Italian, in love, and he can cook. These two books are thrillers with a touch of romance and suspense. I give these books five stars and recommend them.

    A well-written tale depicting the passion and principle of Michael Rossi, owner of the restaurant Michael's Place, as he copes with the aftermath of a harrowing incident between his wife and a serial killer. When a copycat killer appears months later, Michael's life is turned upside-down, and the story unfolds of the steps Michael takes to protect the family he loves. A quick read, and worth your time.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Micheal's Choice. A real masterpiece
    Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2018
    I enjoyed Barbara Avon's suspenseful story, Michael's Choice!. A true Love story of suspense that has all the elements of a great mystery and an even better romantic sideline.Nicole is an haunted woman, haunted by a darkness that comes from her past. Only her husband Michael seems to be able to protect her, but still her life hovers on the brink of danger. But can he face the demons that haunt her?

    Michael's Choice is captivating, sexy, there is a lot of intrigue for readers and it will keep them looking for answers.

    A story that kept me reading nonstop and finishing the book in one day. A great piece of entertainment, a real masterpiece!!
    I most highly recommend this book - giving it 5 stars and looking forward to reading many more books by Avon.
