From a woman who strayed to the other side of the marital fence – and returned to find forgiveness and restoration – comes this practical book about predicting and preventing an extra-marital affair. Based on the principle that the grass is always greener where it 's watered, this book focuses on how to grow a beautiful marriage in your own backyard by establishing six protective "hedges " around it.

"This book is wisdom born of tragic, but genuine, experience. Because Anderson nearly ruined her marriage due to infidelity, she truly knows the misery a fling can cause. Her honesty, vulnerability, and repentance provide marital lessons guaranteed to strengthen couples who are susceptible to the lure of an affair. Anderson now married more than 25 years, uses situations from her parents' marriage, her own marriage, and the marriages of couples she and her husband counsel in their ministry as examples of good and bad habits of marital life. She focuses on post marital dating, listening, encouraging, confessing, and satisfying. At the end of each chapter are questions and projects that will help couples grow closer. This book has many anecdotes, Bible verses, and interviews that make it contemporary, realistic, and reader friendly."
