Review: Shadows of Hope by Georgiana Daniels

Imagine.....

You have struggled to have a baby..
You find out that your husband is cheating on you..
You have been cheating on your wife and the the women ends up pregnant and threatens your marriage and career...
You find out your pregnant and the man you've been dating tells you he's married..






Imagine being in any of these situations and how that would affect your life.  Marissa Moreau is a crisis pregnancy worker and starts to worry that her husband is cheating on her. They have struggled with infertility and that has put a huge strain on the marriage.  Marissa and her partner from work meet every morning at the local coffee shop. She develops a friendship with one of the baristas. She later confides to Marissa that she is pregnant. She's dropped out of school, looking for extra work and her parents aren't supportive. Marissa helps her pick up some extra work at the pregnancy center. As their friendship develops Marissa is struggling more and more with her home life.  Kaitlyn doesn't talk about the babies father much and is really just struggling to get through each day. 

Suddenly the day comes where Kaitlyn goes into labor and texts Marissa to come be with her at the hospital.  Marissa walks in the room only to discover her husband sitting there with Kaitlyn.  Only then does she realize the friend she has grown so close to is the mistress her husband was seeing.  

Marissa isn't sure how she can handle this situation. She knows that she needs God more than ever now to help her through it. She's angry at her husband and angry at Kaitlyn. She feels she's been betrayed by them both. As the time goes on she realizes that Kaitlyn never knew and that as bad as this situation is neither of them knew she knew the other.  Marissa isn't sure she wants her marriage to end, but she knows she wants to be loved and it shouldn't be hard for her husband to do that. Colin has always wanted to be a day, but always thought it would be with Marissa. Can the three of them work out a way to be civil and have a relationship with each other? Can Colin and Marissa save their marriage? Or will the precious little baby be the one to suffer for the actions of the adults?
