Book description
'An honest and deeply chilling account of what it's like to suffer
from a compulsion to look for love in what are most definitely the
wrong places' Elle
For Sue Silverman, the wrong places to look for love include:
At the end of a phone, when a stranger calls her college dorm late
night and asks what she's wearing. On a blue leather couch, with a
senator, while an intern on Capital Hill. In the back of a military
truck, with a paratrooper, when hitching a ride across a desert on
holiday. And still years later, in Room #213 of the Rainbow Motel,
where she goes every Thursday lunchtime for routine sex with Rick
(unbeknownst to Husband 2) ...
In Love Sick, her unflinching memoir of her 28 days of
treatment in a clinic for female sex addicts, Sue revisits her past
behaviour as she learns to put her demons behind her and discover what
love really means.
