"The sound of squealing tires and the gasps of a distraught man hang in the air after a devasting collision, but they distract only for a moment from the fast-paced, action-packed drama that unfolds in the wake of this crippling event. Dave and his wife, Clarice, are an upper-class African-American couple dreaming of keeping up with the Joneses. On the surface everything seems to be perfect, but the twisted car and badly scarred body of Clarice do not compare to the deep lacerations existing in their marriage before the wreck. Tensions multiply as Clarice's stubborn independence pushes Dave closer to Julie, a young white woman serving as Clarice's therapist, a woman who obviously needs him. The turmoil accelerates to a critical point as attraction emerges and we see how easy it is to follow temptations to a place outside God's will. The only hope for saving this marriage on the brink of destruction is in the words spoken over them years before in their marriage ceremony--words that haunt Clarice and Dave as they struggle to find their way back to one another. Will they reclaim the truth from God's Word that says. "Two are better than one; for if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow and [in being joined with God.] a threefold cord in NOT EASILY BROKEN"?--Back cover.

Christian fiction.
