Jake and Tori Madison have a wonderful marriage until Jake is caught in bed with his business partner, Sheila. Sheila, who has always been in love with Jake, planned to seduced Jake and have Tori catch them in the act. Devastated, Tori packs up their daughter and they move into her mother's house. Jake is determined to fix things in their marriage, but when their daughter is fatally injured in a tragic accident he is unable to handle the guilt. Jake runs away, fleeing the country. The only person who knows his whereabouts is Sheila. Jake keeps abreast of the happenings of his business and family through her. Since Sheila is determined to make Jake hers, she won't let Tori or anyone else know what is going on with him.

During his absence, Tori makes major changes within herself and although she still loves Jake, she knows she must move on. After a year of isolation, Jake feels it is time to return home to seek forgiveness. When Jake surprises everyone with his return, Tori has to do some soul searching to see if she can ever forgive Jake and learn to trust him again. Their reconciliation is filled with obstacles that make them both take a second look at themselves and their marriage.

The Prodigal Husband, at its core, is a novel about forgiveness and redemption. Although readers may not agree with the character's choices, it will give everyone who picks it up food for thought about their own lives and the impact of their actions on others.

The Prodigal Husband is a very good book. With Jacquelin Thomas' romance background, you can feel the romantic undertones in this book. I am looking forward to reading more from her in the Christian Fiction genre.
