Official Apex Reviews Rating: *****
Upon learning that his wife is having an affair, Leo suddenly finds himself
thrust in the midst of an overwhelming storm of tortuous pain and raw, unchecked
emotion. As his family begins a slow, agonizing descent into chaotic turmoil, Leo
is eventually torn between the equally grueling options of moving on with his life
or doing what he can to save his marriage. No matter what he decides, though, he
knows that his life will never be the same, and the ultimate challenge becomes not
how to put the pieces of his fractured life back together again – but rather how
long it will take his wounded heart to finally heal...
Gritty and powerful, Breakup is an emotion-filled, heartrending read.
Throughout the pages of his eye-opening memoir, author Leo Averbach takes the
reader on a detailed journey through the step-by-step process that he underwent
as he was forced to watch what was once a happy marriage crumble apart before
his helpless eyes.
Presented in the form of real-time journal entries, Breakup
paints a vivid, striking picture of a man and family suddenly thrust in the deepest
of crises, responding the best way they know how to the life-altering challenges
confronting them; however, what begins as a depressing tale of heartbreak and
woe ends as an inspiring story of resilience and victory, highlighting the liberating
promise of healing and the indomitable power of hope in overcoming the worst of
circumstances.
For anyone seeking to learn more about the very real pain that
accompanies the uncertainty of separation and divorce, Breakup is a thoroughly
enlightening read. An uplifting account of learning how to tap into the
rejuvenative, transformative power that lies within us all.
