According to the Pattern

When Miriam Winthrop realizes her husband Claude's heart has drifted toward another woman, she finds herself alone in rooms that once held warmth, her marriage vows now echoing like ghosts. Rather than accept defeat, Miriam determines to fight for what she swore to keep. She will meet fire with fire. But what weapons does a woman of faith use when her enemy is charm and her battleground is her husband's wandering heart? This early 20th-century romance explores whether love can be won back once it seems lost, and whether forgiveness and strategy can coexist in the fight for a marriage. For readers who appreciate gentle historical fiction with emotional depth, this is a story about dignity, perseverance, and the question that haunts every betrayed spouse: can the heart that strayed ever truly find its way home?
