From Library Journal:

Whitehead, who is Episcopal, fell in love with her high school sweetheart, Michael, who is Catholic, and they made the fatal make-out mistake, which forced them into marriage. After 21 years together, Whitehead confronted her husband, asking if he is having an affair?with another man. In this literary memoir, written with the encouragement of her family, friends, ex-husband Michael, and his partner, Craig, Whitehead, a newspaper columnist living in Cumming, Georgia, chronicles her vision of faith and the joy and pain of raising a family. Sally and Michael shared a roving quest after God, which led them through fundamentalism and created false guilt about their parenting of six sons and one daughter. After sharing what was deep within their hearts, they were able to break free from spiritual and personal repression and discover a path to acceptance, forgiveness, and love. A moving book; recommended for family inspirational collections.?L. Kriz, West Des Moines Lib., Ia.
