Synopsis
Pia Mellody, author of "Facing Codependence" and "Breaking Free" turns her attention to the toxic experience of a co-addicted relationship. She argues that co-addiction and co-dependence, often confused with one another, are not the same thing - co-dependence is about how a relationship with oneself fails, whereas co-addiction is the result of an unhealthy entanglement with another. The book explores in detail the dynamics, the symptoms and the stages (from attraction to obsession) of a co-addicted relationship, and outlines a practical recovery process for the love addict.

Reviewer: A reader from Lancashire, UK
It took me a second reading to recognise the depth of insight which Pia mellody has to the problems of 'love addicts' and the avoidant partners who they suck in and are sucked towards. The book is by no means light and easy reading but it is structured in a way which will help anyone who truly wants to to benefit from it.
