AfterShock: Overcoming His Secret Life With Pornography

What it is

Joann Condie and Geremy Keeton wrote this for the specific moment a wife discovers her husband's pornography use or sexual infidelity, and it stays with her rather than pivoting to his recovery. Seven self-care steps anchor the book: processing the emotional shock, understanding what drives the behavior without excusing it, building an action plan, confronting her husband, and moving into her own recovery. Every chapter closes with reflective questions meant for journaling, so it works as a solo processing tool as well as a book. Both authors are counselors, and the approach blends biblical framing with clinical trauma methodology. 224 pages, published by Focus on the Family in 2020. This is the first book to hand a woman in the discovery window, before anything addressed to couples.
