A Negotiation of Wounds (Negotiation Series, #1 by Michael Stephenson

I was highly uncomfortable reading, and after the first few scenes of Preston and Janet I tried to skip over the remaining scenes between them. The word eroticism, which I may have even overlooked when reading the description - one little word in the description- doesn't cover it. I felt like I was duped a little bit, though, whether by misunderstanding or not. I did want to see what happened between the celebrity couple during their divorce, find out if they could save their marriage and how it affected their children. It sounded like interesting reading, the subject matter highly relevant to me, and probably many others who have been through divorce. Now they must wade through the dangerous and often hostile land of divorce, without losing themselves in the process.Ī sexy, visceral, fast-paced ride, A Negotiation of Wounds takes you on a journey through fame, pain, rejection, eroticism, self-discovery and love as one couple seeks to severe the ties that bind.' But when she and her husband attain the services of two cutthroat lawyers in the city of LA, they find themselves pushed farther into a world of deception than they dared go. When Amanda Matthews finds her film producer husband Reed Matthews having an affair, she moves swiftly to file for divorce. In A Negotiation Of Wounds, the battle between the two paradigms finds its way into the public eye. But now, it seems as if more homes have come to marry the thoughts of Love and Divorce. I read the description before agreeing to read the book: 'Love and Happiness once dwelled together in homes throughout this world.

I was given a copy of this book for free in exchange for an honest review. Reliving her past with a little help from the mirror makes her realize what she needs has been inside her all the while. Now she is facing the world without her husband and needs to be able to have some sense of happiness, to be able to be a solid presence in her daughter's life - whom is about to be married, and whom Snow White has been neglecting terribly because of her painful resemblance to Charming. Her perseverance and fortitude to carry on until the circumstances arose where she met Charming, and eventually married him, were inspiring. Through her introspection we get a look at her life behind the scenes as a child - a darker, grittier version of the childhood story. Snow White, experiencing loneliness and despair searches deep within herself to find the strength, the courage, and the hope she had relied upon in her younger days to carry her through difficult times.

I fell right into this story and liked it as much as I enjoyed the childhood fairy tale. Therapy through magic mirror? It worked for this Queen.
