In this heart-wrenching romantic love story, Paige relies on God as she lives a long life of abuse. Her life began in a small country hometown village in Southwest Michigan, where she lived with her parents, brother, and sister. She ended up in foster homes as a teen until she was finally placed in a loving stable foster home to live with the Herman family where she met Michael.

She and Michael became the best of friends, then she graduated and moved to out of state to attend college. After marrying her boyfriend from high school and college, she realized he wasn’t the man she always thought he was.

Paige was in an abusive relationship. She was broken down physically, mentally, and emotionally. The effects of the abuse made her feel isolated and withdrawn from everyone, even family. Paige didn’t feel loved by her husband and often struggled with the thoughts and memories of when she truly felt happy. Her thoughts always brought her back to Michael, but ever since she left for college, she and Michael lived their lives in parallel, neither aware of the difficulties in the other’s lives. They both believed the other was living a happy life, but reality was quite the opposite.
