imokay: Yes, this full title is My Husband's Affair Became The Best Thing That Happened To Me. Horrible title, but I think she's referring to how strong their marriage was after the R. Type in "Anne Bercht" in a Google search, and you'll find some clips from the Dr. Phil and Oprah shows.

Here's the book on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Husbands-Affair-Became-Thing-Happened/dp/1412033209

I need to keep my copy for a while. I read it the week after D-Day. It was much more helpful that Surviving Infidelity.

I go to Anne's website, www.beyondaffairs.com often and they have some great teleseminars posted there that you can listen to. Just listening to the other couples talk openly about it made me feel not so isolated.

They also have healing get aways for couples and Anne and her WH Brian work one on one with couples.

I read this book the day after I discovered my husband's affair. It was through this book that I found a support group in the state that I reside in.

I was able to listen to Anne and her husband online and I just hated her husbands voice. Plus, he kept interrupting her and then she would agree with whatever he said. Her husband seemed annoyed when she would talk too long about something and that's when the interrupting began.

I read this book about a month after d-day. It helped in a lot of respects, but I also found it discouraging. I felt the author's faith, commitment, and love for her WH was so much stronger than my own. Didn't help that I never warmed to the husband. Thought he was completely useless and childish throughout. So I couldn't help but think, if it's all on the BS to save a marriage, mine probably won't make it, because I could not put up with that man-child. Two months later I am still putting up with my own man-child, but not as gracefully, so who knows.
