Preface to Second Edition
How exciting to be writing a Preface to a book that has been continually selling throughout the U.S., Canada, and internationally since it was originally published by Simon & Schuster in 2002, in English, and that went on to be translated and published in 29 languages so far. It is humbling that When Friendship Hurts has struck a global chord; the e-mails I get from readers from throughout the United States and internationally share with me that the book continues to help women and men, as well as teens, who are dealing with problematical friendships.
