Details: This was not the first book I read, nor necessarily recommend . .. Every Heart Restored was the first and still highly recommend. Now being on the other side and seeing True Victory of my husband over Sexual Sin including elicit sex, pornography and masturbation I can relate to much of the advice given to various women. When you want to run, when you ask why is this happening to me, when you feel like policing your husbands every move, when you have sneaking suspicions and you wonder whether to confront them or not, etc. . . this books helps to guide you through some of these processes. It is reassuring to know that you are not the first women, nor unfortunately the last whom has felt this way. The Gallaghers - Steve & Kathy offer solid Biblical truths with their PureLife Ministiry in Kentucky. Yes, there is victory to be had over sexual sin, and Yes your marriage can be restored if both you and your husband Put God First. As an FYI -We are using this book in conjunction with Every Heart Restored in Wives of Sexual Addicts Recovery Class in Metro Detroit Area.

Details: This book is absolutely perfect for what I am going through. I have gained so much insight and have been repeatedly comforted through Kathy Gallagher's words to other women in (unfortunately) similar circumstances. To me, this book is worth it's weight in gold. Thank you for offering it at an affordable price. :-)
Review Summary: Letters to Hurting Wives
Date: 2008-02-22
Details: I purchased this book because I was reaching out for all the help and support that I could get on my own to try to deal with the pain I have been feeling. I found this book to be less than helpful. I felt bashed and not understood or cared about while reading it. It did not validate my feelings and in fact gave me the feeling that I had no right to go through a "mourning" for what I though I had.
I would recommend it to those who are well on the way to healing, but not to those who are looking for validation and support through the pain.
Review Summary: Very Helpful!
Date: 2008-01-07
Details: I am glad to see there is help out there for wives whose husbands are starting down the path of healing. Secret sin is very damaging and devestating and to be able to identify with others is like a breath of fresh air. Great book!
