About this book

When Kari Baxter's marriage hits its deepest crisis yet—infidelity and the threat of divorce—she makes a courageous decision to fight for her relationship through faith and unconditional love. This powerful story follows her journey as she navigates heartbreak, doubt, and the possibility of genuine redemption, exploring whether love really can conquer even the most devastating betrayals. As Kari leans into her faith and chooses to love sacrificially, you'll witness how grace can transform a broken marriage into something stronger than before. It's a deeply moving reminder that sometimes our most difficult seasons hold the seeds of our greatest spiritual and relational breakthroughs.

Acoustic and soulful indie tracks blended with contemporary Christian music—think Needtobreathe, Kacey Musgraves, and Bon Iver. Wistful, hopeful melodies exploring forgiveness, sacrifice, and second chances. Warm R&B undertones with introspective lyrics about faith restored and love reignited.
