She endured until she had a lightbulb moment. This book is a very personal account of her journey and the lessons learned.
Suzanna James' story highlights the mental abuse she suffered at the hands of a narcissist. Her husband felt he could control anyone if there was something in it for him. He had to have the perfect house, the perfect cars, look like the perfect husband and father.
Then it all started to unravel when his secret affairs came to light.
There had been a number of women in her husband's life from the very beginning of their relationship, and she can no longer live that way. Suzanna hires a private detective, searching once and for all for the truth.
The marriage could not go on, even if it meant having to hurt her children by breaking up her family home. Suzanna did not realise how hard raising a family on her own would be through those teenage years but she is a strong woman, a survivor.
