Breaking Solace (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798988839804)

Tali Solace is young and attractive, has a successful career, and believes

she is happily married. So why does she feel like her life is coming apart? She is overwhelmed by her husband's erratic rages and controlling behaviors. Five years into their relationship, she has more questions than answers. Even with family, good friends, and professional therapy, Tali struggles to reconcile the charming, romantic man she loves with the manipulative,

angry person he becomes without warning. Tali eventually learns . . .

• Narcissists love power and will do anything to get and maintain control.
• Being intelligent and sensitive is not enough to avoid being fooled and manipulated.
• Victims get deluded by love bombing, gaslighting, and flying monkeys without even realizing it.

As you follow Tali's story, you may identify with her self-talk, as written in her journal entries to "Dear Josie." As Tali becomes more broken and defeated, she recognizes she needs to take control of her life. But can she do it?

The author, Skye Bellarmine, takes you into the highs and lows of codependency and self-doubt. Join Tali and find out what becomes her "Last Straw."
