The Heart's Hostage Jen Stephens

Ian and Jane Garner are Harvest Bay's storybook couple: high school sweethearts now married for twenty years with four great kids and a beautiful home. But this storybook, like most, can't be judged by its cover. Ian works long hours at his business, unintentionally alienating Jane. When she demands more of his time, he turns to an adult website and retreats to lick his wounded pride in private. Jane has seldom received as much as she gives to the marriage. Left lonely and dying inside, she turns to her forgotten love of painting and a new friendship with a male coworker to revive the dormant part of heart. As their relationship unravels, Ian and Jane begin to realize that to save their marriage, they both need a Savior. But is it too late for forgiveness, grace, and mercy to set them free to return to the love they once knew? Or will they continue to be The Heart's Hostage?
