Ratings and reviews

Ordering this book is not something anyone wishes they have to do, but Lynda Bevan knows how to lay it all out straight for those who have been betrayed. In what might be the worst period of your life, she provides clear, doable and reasonable steps to move forward -- a very difficult thing for victims. She speaks straight English, no pycho-babble. Read the book, highlight what resonates, put it away and pull it out if those familiar feelings are beginning to return. Thanks Lynda for addressing a horrible situation with care and compassions.

It's a spice of life...sweet/sour/bitter/creamy and salty...pretty good enough challenges for me...forgive him when you love him...
