Confessions of a Love Addict

How many of us can't bring ourselves to end a relationship that we know isn't going anywhere? Confessions of a Love Addict is a candid portrait of one woman's struggle with this particular dilemma. Our story begins on New Year's Eve when she receives an email from her ex, asking her to give their tumultuous relationship one last chance. It has been an on-again, off-again affair stretching over a period of fifteen years. This will be their eighth attempt at reconciliation. The book is divided into three sections: Hope, Reality, Resolution-where the author uses numerous flashbacks to help her understand (and even change) her love-addicted patterns. Each chapter poses a question she must examine and ultimately answer in order to gain insight into why she has chosen this path. It is hoped readers will discover their own self-truths as well. Ms. Williams' writing style is conversational. At times, funny. At others, painfully personal. The reader may sympathize with her one moment and be exasperated with her the next. Unlike most memoirs, the final chapter contains practical advice: websites and books on Love Addiction, plus an interview with noted love addiction expert Marc F. Kern (Take Control Now!) For some people in love, enough is never enough.. Even when it should be.
