Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Brown, director of the Key Bridge Therapy and Mediation Center, puts her experiences as therapist and mediator to good purpose in her book. She outlines five types of affairs: conflict avoidance, intimacy avoidance, sexual addiction, split self, and exit. She then profiles each of these types and explains what kind of work cheaters and their spouses in each type of situation need to do to repair the damage done to their marriage by the infidelity. (In an uncommon move, she also offers advice for the third party in the affair.) Brown explains clearly that if an affair happens, there was usually a problem in place beforehandAand that the problem needs to be solved before the marriage can flourish. Although the exercises offered in the book seem a little datedAdoes anyone still talk about his or her inner child?Athis book is a commonsense and easy-to-read overview of a problem said to touch 70 percent of marriages. Recommended for public libraries.APamela A. Matthews, Gettysburg Coll. Lib., PA
