Review
Faced with an impossible situation Julia did the only thing that she could and that was to put herself and her daughters first. When she and Derrick married, she thought he was her Prince Charming and they would have a happy ever after. She understands his demanding career as a pitcher, but what she doesn’t understand is why his family isn’t enough and why he is distracted by his partying lifestyle and her attempts to get him to understand have gone unheard.
Derrick had taken for granted that Julia and his daughters would be there waiting for him when he made time for them. He realizes that his actions are responsible for the divorce but now that he realizes what is truly important in his life he will do anything to get them back.
There is no denying that Julia and Derrick love each other but convincing her that they belong together and she makes him want to be a better man for his family is the biggest challenge of all.
