Story Behind the Book
An alarming number of Christian women are cheating on their
husbands today, having never intended to do so. The consequences of
these affairs are ugly and devastating. This book was written to
bring a needed voice to a hush-hush topic. Readers will find the
initiative to fight mental, emotional, and physical temptation so
that their marriages, which are ordained by God, will stand strong
and protected. Women will become aware of the subtle progression
from friendship to emotional dependency to a forbidden
relationship, while also becoming equipped to set up protective
boundaries in their lives.
