    About this ebook

    A father’s desperate fight for his children and his sanity, and a mother’s return from breaking point.

    Yet through the nightmare, through all lessons learnt, the emotions and heartaches, he meets an amazing woman, with her own tale of a divorce from hell, manipulation and psychological bullying from her ex-husband and constant battle over her children.
    See how these two amazing people find their light at the end of a long tunnel. More importantly, they find an even deeper love in each other a second time round helping to survive and cope with a system that seems to favor justice in crime more than family.
    This is an amazing true story of how two strangers, torn apart, from two different families, across town, struggle separately and then come together to fight the system, to keep faith in each other and their children, and somewhere, amongst all the pain, sadness and turmoil, fall in love and become soul mates. With combined strength, patience and determination, they save their love for their children and rebuild a home and a new family unit.

    I am simply a loving and caring father fighting to have joint custody of his children. A twisted family law system in Australia and a huge ongoing legal battle has meant that I need to tell my story to other potential fathers going through separation and the pitfalls if you don't act quickly. It is also my real life story to help me heal.
