About This Quote

Yvette had never talked about her marriage – she was a smart girl, and she knew you had no right to complain about someone you got all the way to the altar with. You made that choice, even if you were a child when you did it, and the marriage vow was sacred. But there were those who refused to accept the sacredness of the vows they took. And some of those were people Yvette had reason to love. One such person was her mother-in-law, who had demanded that Yvette and her husband divorce and remarry before she would permit him to see their children.
