Emryn's loved Brooks Montgomery since she was six, and he proposed with a strawberry Ringpop on the playground.
Twenty-two years, a real marriage, and a three-year-old daughter later, she still loves him, but no one warns you how hard marriage is, even if you are in love.
Emryn's lost herself in being a wife and raising their daughter. Unheard. Unseen. Looked through. That's what love and marriage look like for her now.
And Brooks-well, he's too busy trying to provide for his family to recognize the problems in his marriage. So when Emryn offers an ultimatum- counseling or divorce, he feels blindsided. Sure, he's been distracted lately, and yeah, maybe he lets his past haunt him more than he should, but that's life. None of that means he doesn't love her.
They are sinking into a quicksand of pride, anger, resentment, and fear. They have lost sight of their vows to each other and God. Will the quicksand win, or will they make their way to a firm foundation built on their faith, respect, and love for each other?
