A POWERFUL, PROV.OCATIVE NOVEL ABOUT MARRIAGE AND MOTHERHOOD, LOVE AND FORGIVENESS
Tessa Russo is a stay-at-home mother of two young children and the wife of a renowned pediatric surgeon.

This is the moving, luminous story of good people caught in untenable circumstances. Each being tested in ways they never thought possible. Each questioning everything they once believed. And each ultimately discovering what truly matters most.
