Deceived: Facing Sexual Betrayal Lies and Secrets

Pornography, cybersex, prostitutes, voyeurism, multiple affairs. No matter their "drug" of choice, men who act out sexually leave their partners reeling in fear, rage, incredible shame, and isolation.

But there is hope.

In Deceived, bestselling author Claudia Black offers women in relationships plagued by sexual betrayal the care and guidance to create a new path of clarity, direction, and confidence. Black uses stories of real women who have been through a wide variety of experiences to help readers develop the understanding and skills to:

• confront their partners
• heighten their personal security by setting nonnegotiable boundaries
• avoid preoccupation with their partners' problems
• practice forgiveness
• let go of the uncontrollable
• talk to their children
• make positive changes derived from esteem and integrity

Deceived teaches women how to proactively emerge from emotional isolation, shed secrets and shame, and discover their power to incite positive change in their relationships.
