The Greatest Virtue: Jenny - The Madisons - Book #5

By Mildred Wilson

After nearly seven years of marriage, four of which had been as a stay-at-home mom, Jennifer Madison Newton found herself in a state of deep depression. Initially she had believed that quitting a job that she loved to stay home and tend to her two children was the responsible and economical thing to do. However, nothing had turned out like she had hoped. The good feelings that she had started out with were gradually replaced with frustration and low self-esteem. Her husband Riley had not been particularly supportive. He had behaved like a passive observer over the years and seemed to be oblivious to everything but his profession and personal interests. His life for the most part had not changed, but the mundane concerns of taking care of the children and household chores had become tedious for her. Although Jennifer was well-educated, there was no intellectual stimulation and she felt her world had grown significantly smaller while Riley's had grown larger.Jennifer had never been one to complain and held her feelings locked inside her, but one day Riley made a particularly hurtful comment and she erupted like a volcano and spewed forth all of her pent-up emotions. Surprised and shocked at Jennifer's outburst, it was nonetheless a wake-up call for Riley and he suddenly realized that he had allowed their relationship to languish. But Riley had a problem that could negatively impact their marriage if left unaddressed.Feeling taken for granted, Jennifer welcomes the attention from her neighbor's grandson Dustin Peloski. He is single, handsome, and makes her feel special and important, something she had craved for a long time. Both Jennifer and Riley want happiness and a good life and each know that the virtues faith, hope, and love are special gifts that they need to put into action. Will they have the necessary desire and discipline to do that to save their marriage?
