The Marine's Evangeline

One is unhappily married. The other is a self-proclaimed bachelor. What happens when these two lives cross? When he meets her will he change his view on relationships? Will he cause her to question her commitment to her husband? Can he be the saving grace she needs to give her the strength to remove herself from an abusive marriage? Derek's mother always told him one of these days he's going to meet a woman who is going to rock his world and he won't know what to do, but he just laughed at the thought. In thirty-four years it hasn't happened, so what's to make him think it ever will? He will just keep doing what he's doing remaining happy all by himself with no strings attached. Evangeline has been in a marriage she doesn't want for the past ten years, unable to break free from the hold her husband has on her. In the beginning she thought Chris was going to be the man she's always wanted in her life, but that changed quickly and once she realized it the damage had already been done.
