 Excellant book November 10, 2008
Teresa Vanvleet (Minnesota)
This is a wonderful, hopeful book for those living with someone with sexual addiction. It helped me understand it's not my fault. Explains behaviors and why they occur. The book got me through a really rough period in my life. Would recommend it to anyone who has sexual addiction in their relationship.
A needed book for codependents October 31, 2007

The author provides very valuable information about sex addicts and about codependents. Her personal story gives readers a chance to be cautious if they are faced with a relationship with a sex addict. She gives complete descriptions of codependent behavior. What I liked best was the spiritual touch of the book. She emphasizes the importance of having a relationship with God and using prayer to stay on the right track. If you are involved in relatinship with a sex addict, or if you know someone who is, this book is helpful. Although the author's relationship with the sex addict ended, she doesn't believe it has to be that way.
 Other issues it didn't address February 14, 2007

They need to update it to include emotional affairs, massage parlors and the web. All of these are very damaging to any relationship. The other factor that was not addressed was financial hardship caused by the sexual addiction and how that would affect the co-dependent if you chose to focus on self only. Although I do understand that a book can not cover all the issues of addiction or co-addiction in this case.
Must-read for COSA's September 9, 2006

This is the best book I have read, so far. I have read most out there - but this is the first I read that wasn't geared towards understanding the addict. This one sure helped me understand, but it's a book for ME - a CO-Sex Addict. It's short, concise, and easy to understand. Some books get a bit technical for my liking. I don't want to know statistics - I want to heal! Good luck, and take care of you! Don't forget you are not alone. [...]
