The Winds of Love — Agnes Sligh Turnbull

Absorbing story of a woman facing the crisis of a broken marriage. Katherine Davenport is a happy woman with a husband she loves, two delightful children, a wide circle of friends, and an assured position in the small suburban community. Her happiness and security are suddenly shattered when David tells her he has fallen in love with his secretary, cannot fight against it, and asks her to give him a divorce.

This she refuses to do, believing that a marriage build upon years of mutual love and trust cannot be broken by a possible infatuation. She remains adamant against all his embittered pleas and is finally left to accept the role of the deserted wife. The she does with dignity and courage.

She finds much fulfillment in the lives of her children, and also in a surprising new intimacy with many of her friends. They, knowing she has borne the sorrows of love, find her receptive to their confidences..
