Burbank, CA, United States – December 14, 2016 /PressCable/ —

Caroline Madden, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, has authored a third affair recovery book, “Blindsided By His Betrayal: Surviving the Shock of Your Husband’s Infidelity”. This book is written for women who have discovered their husband has cheated and are struggling with the volatile emotions that typically follow such a discovery.

“People think that women who take their cheating husbands back are doormats. That isn’t the case,” Madden says. “These are very strong women to take on the challenge to see if rebuilding is possible. They are able to see they aren’t in competition with their husband’s affair partner, but rather that the affair happened because of vulnerabilities in the husband. Also, if a husband is truly remorseful, is it worth it to break up the family? That is what they are evaluating.”

According to Madden, “Women don’t recognize themselves after the discovery of a husband’s affair. They go from being confident women to checking on their husband’s every move. They go through personality changes. Women who were by nature easy going find themselves consumed with rage. Alpha women find themselves crying all the time and unable to go to work.”

Madden cites this as the reason why she wrote “Blindsided By His Betrayal: Surviving the Shock of Your Husband’s Infidelity”. “A lot of the wives who read the first book, “After a Good Man Cheats”, and said they were so grateful when they got to the part of the book that said they weren’t crazy to be so emotionally distraught and challenged,” Madden says. “This book helps women who think they are going crazy as they experience the natural roller coaster of emotions. It’s important that they realize what they are experiencing is a normal reaction to the trauma of discovering their husband has cheated.”

“Betrayed women do things that at the time seem like good ideas (tell the whole world about the affair, tell the kids, tell the husband’s work, have an affair themselves), but when they finally get off the reactionary emotional roller coaster, they regret those decisions made out of anger, “Madden says. “They make an already terrible situation worse. They compound their husband’s selfish emotional choice to cheat even worse with their own reactions. Sadly, the children end up being the ultimate losers when women respond with vengefulness instead of calmly and rationally figuring out the best path forward.”

Madden’s book also details the concrete steps women can take to get their old selves back. “Don’t let his stupid actions define you. Take.Back.Your.Power.”
