(Black PR Wire) PARK FOREST, IL - Paula Marie Media presents LOVE INTENTIONAL a dramatic stage play that explores the messy, heart-wrenching journey of a blended family struggling to heal and find hope amid loss, betrayal, and regret. In Act 1, the story kicks off at a baby shower where what should be a celebratory event turns tragic—Gwen nearly dies, and the family learns that the medical crisis not only cost them their baby but also left Gwen unable to have more children. This shocking incident sets off a chain of revelations: 

Kevin is forced to confront the fallout of his past infidelity and the reality of having a child from that affair, represented by Katelyn, whose arrival further disrupts an already fractured household. As the play unfolds, the characters—Kevin, Gwen, and their extended family—grapple with deep-seated pain and guilt. Gwen, in particular, struggles with her identity as both a wife and a stepmother, dealing with feelings of inadequacy and betrayal while trying to rebuild trust and connection with Kevin and his daughter Sydney. The narrative weaves through moments of raw emotion: heartfelt conversations, poignant songs, and intense confrontations that expose the characters’ vulnerabilities.

In Act 2, the tensions escalate as family members face the practical challenges of blending their lives. Conflicts emerge around parenting, identity, and forgiveness. While Kevin and Gwen attempt to mend their relationship and provide stability for Sydney, the arrival of Katelyn and the painful truths buried in old journals force everyone to confront the past. Ultimately, the play is a testament to the power of intentional love—choosing to forgive, to heal, and to rebuild even when the wounds seem too deep.

This compelling narrative of loss, redemption, and the relentless pursuit of family unity challenges its characters to rise above their brokenness and embrace a future built on forgiveness and genuine love.
