I read this book after a mega-betrayal. It was recommended by my counselor and I found it to be incredibly insightful, thought provoking, helpful, and a source of great comfort. Betrayal is an awful topic and this author really "gets down" into the depths of the bad feelings the Victim experiences. She describes the point of view of the Betrayer and the Accomplice in a very helpful way. Nothing can take away the hurt, but this book does help you understand it better and not take the depths of the pain so completely personally. There are many who have been betrayed and many more in the future who will be as well. Like another reviewer, I wish I had read it about two years ago before my Betrayer set about destroying a 33 year marriage with his behavior. This is the kind of book you can read and re-read and always find something valuable. Another really helpful aspect of the book is the road to healing she lays out and how she addresses how to ever trust another human being in a sexual way again. So many books I've read in the past months have not really grappled with the depth of this issue, this one really does. If you need to read this book because you have been betrayed you have my sympathy. Buy this book, it will help.
a great book for those asking, "why me"

This book reviews the whys, hows, and players involved in the betrayal. I found it interesting to view the situation from all 3 prospectives. I've learned so much in the last month and this book has helped me begin the process of healing. I wished I could have read it before things had deteriorated but better late than never. It makes you asks probing questions of yourself and really begin to think your whole situation through. I recommend this book to those lost after a betrayal, it helps you know that you are strong, resourceful and appreciate what you do have. One thing that is is me and good friends. You too can survive.
I can't begin to thank you! GREAT BOOK
