Now available from Mt. Zion Ridge Press, in paper, ebook, and audio:
Everything is going
right for Lisa. Her comic strip about a pastor's family has gone national, and
she has a contract for a series of books. Even better, she is pregnant.
Finally, her critical father-in-law will stop mocking her for wasting time with
her "scribbles" and "pretensions of being an artist," and
admit she is a good wife.
Then her husband,
Todd, comes home from another business trip in a foul mood and destroys her
happy announcement with: "Is it mine?"
He tries to make
things right, but he has never learned to simply apologize. Even more
important, he has never learned that if he is truly sorry, he needs to change.
As communication disintegrates and suspicions and pain increase, their marriage
disintegrates, until his own sisters urge Lisa to leave him, to protect her
heart, her mind, her baby, and even her life.
Family secrets, and
patterns of suspicion and accusations and abuse slowly come to light. Can Lisa
and Todd regain their first love and forgive each other, and break free of a
family tradition that could destroy them both?
