[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "Forever Scarlet" by Dr Karen Spurrier.]

Dr. Karen Spurrier's book Forever Scarlet discusses relationships, the reasons behind infidelity in partnerships, and the traits of a woman who cheats. Additionally, it discusses the kinds of affairs that are engaged in cheating as well as the telltale indicators of a cheater. This book is for you if you're searching for solutions to problems about infidelity or how to remain faithful in a relationship.

The author explores the complicated issues surrounding women who have extramarital affairs in this book, following their brave path to healing and self-awareness. This book offers a thorough and carefully considered study that looks at all angles of a matter. Each chapter is organized in a straightforward, succinct manner, making it simple to read and providing comprehensive explanations of the various parts of affairs. This book offers a dispassionate explanation of the "hows" and "whys" of having an affair and demonstrates the possibility of recovery and reconciliation.

I think this will help the readers understand why individuals cheat and the acts that push them to cheat. I really liked how the author used real-life experience while outlining some things that may lead to women cheating in their relationships. I also truly liked the different quotes from professionals that the author included in the book. Another method of demonstrating that some people cheat—and not all of them—is because they are angry or spiteful toward their wives.

The author requests readers to read this book with empathy and not pass judgment on those who cheat; sure, some people cheat for enjoyment, but there are also some who are unable to stop themselves. The author discussed a number of factors in several chapters that could encourage someone to cheat, including low self-esteem, dissatisfaction in a present romantic relationship, emotional neglect or love starvation, and many more. Any one of these traits could cause someone to cheat in their present relationship.

After reading this book, I can state that it is nicely edited and described, and I don't dislike anything about it. All subjects were covered and adequately described, thanks to the efforts of the author.

This book receives a rating of five out of five stars from me. It was a worthwhile read with no obvious mistakes. The book truly helped me realize a lot of aspects that could contribute to individuals cheating and what exactly motivates someone to cheat in a relationship. It also discussed the several types of assistance that can be provided to a cheater. Anyone who has ever had an affair, been impacted by one, or who just wants a deeper, new framework for understanding relationships and their challenges should definitely read this book.
