Straight Talk About Betrayal: A Self-Help Guide for Couples

This book is tiny, and can be finished in a snap. I found that to be a Positive when asking my wife (who had the affair) to read it with me. It's not overwhelming. What I especially appreciated was that it offered a view of each person's perspective and did so in a non judgmental, matter of fact manner. It has been frustrating trying to find a resource to help work through a tough situation, when most of the books available are written specifically for Women whose Husbands had cheated. This book did not make any assumptions and works for either situation, whether it was the husband or wife who had the affair. I see it only briefly mentioned in the description above, but the end of the book is a helpful questionnaire to aid both parties to evaluate their feelings and spark a USEFUL discussion about, "Where do we go from here?" I wouldn't wish the situation on anyone, but if it did happen, this book would be the one I would recommend first.

This book is a great summary about the trials and tribulations of recovery. I could relate to everything. My husband is gaining an understanding of what I am going through. I highly recommend this one!

This book was great. It was short and to the point. My husband would not pick up any other book on the subject. He got through this one. It helped me with my emotions.

After having a child and dealing with the stress of parenthood I committed the greatest crime of all, cheating on my soulmate Angel. After losing the most important thing in my life I realized how much she truely meant to me. It was hard for me to cope with all the pain and I even considered taking my own life. I knew I needed help so a friend recommended this book. After finishing this modern literature miracle I felt like a mountain was lifted from my soul. I finally found the words I wanted to say to Angel that were so hard to convey in the past. I gave her my copy and after rebuilding our trust and restoring our friendship we finally overcame the betrayal and found the love we thought was lost forever. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
