A String of Pearls is a heart-warming and heart-wrenching story about three generations of women and their struggles in love and relationship. It is a story of Ignacia Sanchez who was forced to marry a man she did not love; of Berta Chan who married the man she loved but physically abused her; and of Teresa Andrews, whose doubts and fears about love and relationship almost cost her the love of her life. It is a story of a daughter who wanted to be like her mother and another who did everything not to be like hers; of daughters trying to understand their mothers; and mothers, their daughters. In the end, no matter how different they may be, they will always be like a string of pearls, for they are of the same kind.
A young woman's search for her true identity led her halfway around the world--to the Philippines--a country she knew nothing about; a country she could have called her own. As Marissa Maiers searches for the truth, Eva Carino succumbs to the thought that she may never see the child she gave up twenty-one years ago. On the other side of the world, the strokes of an artist's paintbrush bring back to life the very woman he is trying to let go. Portrait of a Young Woman is a delightful and refreshing tale of sacrifice, unspoken passion and enduring love during the bygone era of American military presence in the Philippines.
