 Until death us do part…or until Desiree walks away. Desiree “Desi” Bishop is devastated when she finds evidence of her husband’s affair. God knew she didn’t get married only to one day have to stand before a judge and file for a divorce. But she wants out, no matter how much her heart says forgive him. That is easier said than done. She’s hurting and she sees God granting a divorce for fornication as the only opt-out clause in her marriage. 
Michael Bishop is a repentant man who loves his wife of three years. If only he had paid attention to the red flags God was putting up to keep him from falling into the devil’s snares, he wouldn’t have fallen. 
Although God forgives him instantly when he repents, Desi’s forgiveness is moving as a snail’s pace. 
After all the tears are shed and forgiveness received, the couple learns that some marriages are worth keeping.
