He's Clean and Sober... So Where's My Happily Ever After?

He's sober. You're still hurting. Now what?

For countless Christian women, the moment their husband achieves sobriety is supposed to mark the beginning of a ""happily ever after."" But instead of healing, they find themselves trapped in a painful, confusing reality: the addiction may be gone, yet the patterns of abuse, control, and spiritual harm remain.

In He's Clean and Sober... So Where's My Happily Ever After?, Cherri Raws Freeman offers a compassionate, faith-centered guide to help women recognize the dynamics of post-addiction abuse, name the destructive patterns, and begin to heal-no matter where they are in their journey.

Drawing on biblical wisdom and practical tools, this book will help you:

- Recognize coercive control, emotional abuse, and false repentance

- Break free from guilt, shame, and the pressure to ""fix"" the marriage

- Set healthy, Christ-centered boundaries

- Reclaim your identity as a beloved daughter of God

- Navigate the road to healing with courage and grace

If you've been asking, ""Why doesn't sobriety feel like a miracle for us?"" you are not alone. This book will meet you with truth, hope, and the gentle reminder that God sees you, loves you, and has not abandoned your story.

""Reading Cherri's book felt like someone finally saw me. Her words bring clarity, compassion, and hope.""

- Anne

""A masterclass in how the Church can support survivors of post-addiction abuse.""

- Dr. James Ayers, PhD, Professor Emeritus, Lancaster Bible College
