Conflict of Emotions

Conflict of Emotions, by Geraldine McCall, is the story of a woman who pays too high a price
for love. At first glance, Janice and Christopher Blunt seem to have the ideal marriage, in
fact, Janice’s love for Chris is so strong that she foregoes the pursuit of a higher
education to marry him. They have three beautiful children, a home, and a great deal of
happiness - or so it seems.
As the years pass, Janice notices a change in Chris, but tries to smooth over any
disagreements in the hopes that their love will remain strong. Because Janice’s belief in the
sanctity of marriage and the commitment it entails is so string, she refuses to face reality
and see Chris for what he really is: a liar and an adulterer who has repeatedly taken
advantage of his wife’s trusting nature.
The true conflict of emotions comes when Janice has no choice but to face the truth about her
husband. The enormity of the decision she must make - a decision affecting every facet of
her life - threatens to render her helpless, causing her great mental and physical anguish.
Janice’s choice - and the grace and dignity with which she carries it out - will serve as an
inspiration to all those forced to choose between their belief in the sacred union of
marriage and their own personal happiness.
