After Adultery: Grief and Healing for the Woman Betrayed

When Jane married David, she considered her vows a lifetime commitment. She placed her confidence and trust in her mate and in her mind, divorce was not an option. Sixteen years later, her world fell apart as a counselor helped David confess ten years of unfaithfulness to her.

Suddenly Jane's ''knight in shining armor'' was her enemy, and she experienced reactions and emotions new to her. Rage, vengeance, hatred, and disgust clouded her thoughts as she experienced stages of grief, depression, and mourning.

Journal excerpts detail the raw emotions Jane dealt with as she struggled to regain her self-respect, dignity, and faith. It took five long years before she drew a line in the sand and decided to step over it instead of sinking into a pit of continued bitterness and heartache.
