Blended families face difficulties that traditional families never know. These challenges increased disconnect between spouses, add additional heartache and lead to a significantly higher rate of divorce. In spite of this, stepfamily success is possible. This book is for parents who long to defy the odds by creating a close connection with their spouse and then working together to build a joy-filled home.
