Most of these types of stories focus on the person doing the "cheating", not the partner who is left behind. After the media spotlight cools down, what happens to these partners? How do they make the decision to stay or go? Is there really any hope for the future of the relationship? How do they survive the shame and move forward?

The media goes wild when politicians and celebrities being caught "cheating" on their spouses are exposed in public. Most of these types of stories focus on the person doing the "cheating", not the partner who is left behind. After the media spotlight cools down, what happens to these partners? How do they make the decision to stay or go? Is there really any hope for the future of the relationship? How do they survive the shame and move forward? Mending A Shattered Heart provides real hope, promise and inspiration to readers who are struggling.

Anyone who has discovered their loved one, the one person that they are supposed to trust completely, has been cheating on them will want to read this book. Readers have an opportunity to explore whether the person they are in a relationship with is simply behaving badly or truly suffers from a disease called sex addiction. Knowing the difference and knowing what to do about it can be transformational.

Author and editor, Stefanie Carnes brings together several leading experts in the field of sex addiction and family therapy to guide the reader through an assortment of difficult questions, including, Should I stay or should I go?, How Do I Set Boundaries and Keep Myself Safe?, What Does It Mean if My Partner Has Shown an Interest in Minors? and "What should I tell the kids?" Each of these topics are tackled in individual chapters producing a comprehensive guide that offers readers expertise on how to begin the painful road of mending a shattered heart.

What is unique about Mending A Shattered Heart is that it offers such inspiration and promise for the partner of a sex addict. It shows the seriousness of sex addiction and offers hope by showing that treatment can be successful, but hard work needs to be done--by both the partner and the addict. Without partners really examining their relationship with the sex addict, they can find themselves in a spiral of devastating relationships, essentially leaving the relationship and then falling in love with the same type of person over and over again with the same disastrous results. Mending A Shattered Heart shows the reader that they do have options. Even if the partner makes the decision to leave the relationship, there are things they can do to help them in their own recovery and make sure this never happens again. If they choose to stay in the relationship, they can work toward repairing the damaged relationship along with their own recovery.

All the material in Mending A Shattered Heart is provided in a question and answer format that delves into essential information including therapeutic and practical information that the partner can use right away. This second edition of the book includes a new focus on the impact of the trauma when a partner discovers his or her partner is cheating and what to do about it.

Well-made liner that ‘s heavy & durable
Size: 72"W x 78"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
These Barossa Design Long Shower Curtain Liner is thick, sturdy, and looks and feels noticeably more durable than standard liners. The heavier weight helps it hang straight without clinging, giving the shower a clean, polished look. It does a great job keeping water contained, and the material feels strong enough to last through regular use without tearing or thinning out. The length is ideal for taller showers, adding extra coverage and protection.

Great Quality and Perfect for Creative Projector Effects
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
Although designed as a shower curtain liner, I ended up using this for a completely different purpose and it worked perfectly. I placed it behind my study window as a projection screen for Halloween videos, and the results were fantastic. The material allowed the projector image to display clearly while still diffusing the light nicely for a great effect from outside. The quality was much better than expected, the material felt durable, and it was easy to position and work with. This product turned out to be incredibly versatile and offered excellent value for the money. If you enjoy creative decorating ideas or seasonal displays, this works brilliantly as an inexpensive projection screen alternative.

Perfect length and actually stays in place.
Size: 72"W x 75"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
This liner solved a problem I didn’t realize was bothering me until I switched to it. The extra length makes a big difference—no more water sneaking out onto the floor or the curtain riding up while you’re showering. It hangs nicely and gives a cleaner, more finished look compared to standard sizes. The material feels thicker than the cheap liners you usually find, but not overly stiff. It drapes well and doesn’t stick to you while showering, which is a big plus. The magnets at the bottom actually work and help keep it in place against the tub, especially if you have any airflow in the bathroom. Installation was simple and the reinforced holes seem durable enough to last. Overall, it just does what it’s supposed to do without any fuss. For the price, it’s a solid upgrade and something I’d definitely buy again.

Well made
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1b. Clear-heavy
The magnets hold well. The grommets are sturdy. The plastic is a bit thick and doesn't like to lie flat against the tub so it is constantly brushing you while you shower.

Exactly what they say it is.
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1b. Clear-heavy
Appears to work exactly as advertised, and quality is very satisfactory, which is always a pleasant surprise on Amazon. Magnets are strong enough, plastic feels pliable and durable. Don't forget the rings aren't included.
