She was going to have to face me. This was not cheating; this was an affair. I arrived at her house-then I saw the red and blue lights flashing behind me. In 2009, Meredith Strickland's life comes crashing down when she discovers her husband Jonathan's affair during her pregnancy with their third child. Their church scrambles to advise them, along with Liz (the other woman) and her husband, who are all members. Unfortunately, the church focuses on the consequences of the adultery on Meredith's family. When Liz continues to try to steal Meredith's life in other ways, it becomes more than she can handle. Trying to balance faith, forgiveness, and love with anger, panic, and grief, Meredith searches for a path that will help her survive. That path takes her through tangled relationships and human failure that seem impossible to overcome.In the introduction to this true story, Meredith says to think long and hard before deciding what to do. "In the game of life, your husband has dealt you the divorce card by having an affair," she writes. "It's up to you how, or if, you play that card." This honest, vulnerable account of a wife's worst nightmare will have you wishing you could hold Meredith's hand as she struggles to find her voice-and a way to rebuild her life.
