If you are suffering from an intimate betrayal, you know. Betrayal inflicts a unique, unprecedented pain you can only comprehend once you have experienced it. It is stunning. It is mind-boggling. You feel at once enraged, panicked, bewildered; but, mostly, you hurt. Betrayal in love, especially, can be a make-or-break event that marks a cataclysmic divide in your life. It changes you. When you believe in someone so completely and then realize they have been deceiving you, the worst thing happens: your faith in yourself crumbles. The shock lifts a veil from your eyes, and you can never see yourself or the world in the same way again. It is time to open to the deep lessons of grief and loss.

In a moving account of the mysteries of love, loss and betrayal, "Love and the Mystery of Betrayal" shows how the heart can triumph even after the most shattering events. The author seamlessly blends research and reflection, love and heartbreak, trauma and transformation. The soulful writing provides the solace only a kindred spirit who knows intimately the landscape of the heart can. She blows the whistle on a culture that is blind to betrayal and dismissive of emotional suffering. Meanwhile, you are guided through the anguish of loss with a gentle touch and understanding heart.
