When it comes to divorce, forewarned is forearmed. This book delivers both in a story you won't be able to pause. Equal parts suspense thriller and how-to manual, Tim’s memoir is a must read for anyone who’s facing a divorce with children, or loves somebody who is. While most intuitively understand that divorce brings out the worst in people, and many have heard that separating can be extremely costly and frustrating, few approach the process aware of its greatest pitfalls, how truly terrible they are, and just how prevalent they’ve become.

Did you hear the dreaded “I love you, but I’m not in love with you”? Did your spouse suddenly transform into a new person you can barely recognize? Do you find yourself staring at divorce papers and wondering where it all went wrong? This book is for you.
