Nobody Warned Me About the Fantasy

I went through it. More than once.

Relationships that drained me financially, emotionally, and physically. I was shot at. I had doors kicked in and property destroyed. I had money stolen from my own home. And through all of it I kept trying to make things work because I believed, wrongly, that love was enough to fix broken people.

Love alone is not enough. The right love, the kind built on mutual respect and emotional health, that is something entirely different. And that is what this book is going to help you understand.

I did not write this from the outside looking in. I wrote it from inside the experience. From the specific kind of quiet desperation that comes when you are lying next to someone every night and feeling the loneliest you have ever felt in your life.

Love was never meant to cost you the person you are. When it does, something has gone wrong that the love alone cannot fix.

My hope is that somewhere in my story you find your own. And in finding it you find the strength to make a different choice.

You Are Worth Every Step of the Walk

This book is for the person still in it. The one who just walked away. The one standing in the middle trying to figure out which way to move. You are not alone. You are not crazy. You are not weak for having loved hard.
