      ''Fierce. Game-changing. Urgently necessary. Brilliant, brilliant and did I say brilliant?'' EMMA THOMPSON

      -------

      Actor, writer and hopeless romantic Rebecca Humphries had often been called crazy by her boyfriend. But when paparazzi caught him kissing his Strictly Come Dancing partner, she realised the only crazy thing was believing she didn''t deserve more.

      A flood of support poured in on social media, but amongst the well-wishes was a simple question with an infinitely complex answer: ''If he was so bad, why did you stay?''

      Empowering, unflinching and full of humour, this book takes that question and owns it. Using her relationship history and experiences since the scandal during Strictly, Rebecca explores why good girls are drawn to darkness, whether pop culture glamourises toxicity, when a relationship ''rough patch'' becomes the start of a destructive cycle, if women are conditioned for co-dependency, and - ultimately - how to reframe disaster into something magical.
