A MUST Read!
I cannot say enough good things about this book! It was difficult for me to read because it described many of my relationships. However, the book also helped me to put things into perspective and taught me how to handle these narcissists. It answered so many of my questions past and present. Thank you Dr.Love!

Amazing and very helpful read!
Amazing book! I feel like this helped me more than even counseling did after my divorce. I highly recommend this for every woman because it's all about self exploration as well as breaking bad relationship habits!

Nice book on how to recognize when you're about to fall into a relationship with a self-absorbed man (again). Though it deals with narcissistic men, it seems it could be equally applied to men falling for such women.

A must-read for anyone involved in a relationship with a narcissist.
This book is a must-read for anyone who has suffered in a relationship with a narcissist. In my 30 years as a clinical social worker, I have talked with countless people, usually women, who have struggled to understand the behavior of a narcissist. They have asked the questions "what's wrong with me?" and "what happened to the man I fell in love with?" Dr. Love's book helps the reader identify and understand both her own behavior and that of her narcissistic partner through a series of thought-provoking exercises and stories. Most who read this book will find themselves nodding their heads in understanding, and will experience that "light-bulb" moment when it becomes clear. Dr. Love walks with the reader on a journey of self-discovery, identifying the strengths that make it possible to move on from and never return to relationships with a narcissist. It's helpful to have a journey as you read and Dr. Love does frequent "check ins" with the use of "Your Looking Glass". The section entitled "Self Care: Becoming Your Own Fairy Godmother" was of particular interest to me. As a Reiki Master I understand the mind/body/spirit connection and Dr. Love beautifully ties this all together. Thank you, Dr. Love, for this thoughtful and insightful work, and for sharing the stories of the many clients you have helped. This book is life-changing!!

This is a guidebook to finding your voice in a relationship!
I work in the field of sexual abuse and assault. I will definitely recommend this book to my colleagues and friends. Narcissists are everywhere in our lives – in varying degrees. Whether you have found yourself in repeated unhealthy narcissistic relationships with an intimate partner, friend, or family member or only on occasion, this book will help you recognize and break free of these unhealthy relationships. Dr. Love’s approach is compassionate, empowering and realistic. She has structured the book to help a person identify personal characteristics that foster relationships with a narcissistic personality - without the blame that often accompanies such self-discovery. Through the use of helpful quizzes, checklists, and journaling she assists the reader to create a plan that will work for them to bring positive change into their life. Change is hard work - Dr. Love has written a book an individual can continually go back to and receive support for their journey. It's a guidebook to finding your voice in your relationships!

The eye-opener you need
This book has helped me so much. For months I kept meeting narcissistic men. Now I know how to recognize them immediately and be more aware. Best purchase of the year.
