FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description turn the end of a relationship into the beginning of a new life - and love... the fear of abandonment is one of our most primal fears, and deservedly so. Its pain is often overwhelming, and can leave its mark on the rest of your life. In the midst of the hurt, its hard to see an end to your feelings of rejection, shame, and betrayal. In the groundbreaking book, Susan Anderson, a therapist who has specialised in helping people with loss, heartbreak, and abandonment for more than twenty-five years, helps you put that pain in perspective. It is designed to help all victims of emotional breakups - whether you are suffering from a recent loss, or a lingering wound from the past; whether you are caught up in patterns that sabotage your own relationships, or youre in a relationship in which you no longer feel loved. From the first stunning blow to starting over, it provides a complete program for abandonment recovery. Going beyond comforting words to promote real change, this healing process will help you work through the five universal stages of abandonment - shattering, withdrawal, internalising, rage, lifting - by understanding their biochemical and behavioural origins and implications. Hands-on exercises for improving your life will teach you how to manage the inevitable pain, then go on to build a whole new concept of self, incrase your capacity for love, and find new love on a deeper and richer level than ever before. Author Biography Susan Andersen grew up in a house filled with testosterone and things havent changed. Still in the minority in her own home, shes surrounded by her high-school sweetheart, her son and all-male pets.According to Andersen, who grew up in Seattle, having two older brothers was a mixed blessing. "When anybody messed with me, my brothers were always quick with an offer to beat them up. That was sorta nice, although I personally believe it had more to do with the fact that guys just like to fight than with any towering concern for my welfare. You might think thats cynical, but guess who the target was if no one else was around and they were tired of fighting each other? I mustve spent half my childhood locked in the bathroom, screaming, Dads gonna get you when he gets home. I know, nobody likes a stoolie. But it was either that or have my block knocked off on a regular basis, and trust me, Daddy was the best deterrent going."Andersen started writing books later in life. "I wrote bits and pieces all my life, but I never really felt as if I had the life experience to string an entire book together until I turned 30," she said. When her son was young, a friend suggested series romances to Andersen and from that point on, she was hooked. She never intended to be a writer. "I actually wanted to be a dental assistant. I went to college to learn the craft, only to discover that as employers, I didnt like 99% of the dentists I worked for," Andersen admits.Given her early training in dealing with men, she was a natural at the dynamics and pitfalls of the male/female experience. Susans first novel, Shadow Dance, hit shelves in 1989. She reached bestseller lists with her book Baby, Im Yours, which went on to be named one of Romance Writers of Americas Top 10 Favourite Books of 1998 and also won the Romantic Times magazine Reviewers Choice Award for Best Contemporary Romance of 1998. Susan has gone on to have her books appear repeatedly on the New York Times extended list and be selected three years in a row as one of the 10 novels named Amazon.com Editors Choice in 2001, 2002 and 2003. Today she continues to write stories where the guy gets the girl, as long as hes willing to bend a little.Her fast-paced story lines, wry humour and edgy writing style have consistently placed her books on both the mass market charts and on bestseller lists including the New York Times extended, USA TODAY, Waldenbooks, Barnes & Noble and Amazon.com. She currently lives in Seattle with her husband.
