He Smiled in My Face and Kissed Me like Judas

He smiled in my face. He prayed next to me. He called me chosen. And I still ended up broken.This isn't a breakup story. This is what happens when grooming hides behind a smile or charm, when manipulation feels like love, and when a grown woman realizes she bent her standards to keep something God never sent.I wasn't naïve. I wasn't young. I wasn't unaware. I was unhealed.This book walks through the unraveling — the red flags I ignored, the lies I tolerated, the spiritual language that masked control. It names betrayal for what it is and exposes how easy it is to confuse attention with intention.But it doesn't stop there.This is about the moment God held the mirror up. About boundaries I didn't know I needed. About leaving religion and falling in love with Jesus for real. About rebuilding without the lie.He Smiled in My Face and Kissed Me Like Judas is not about dragging a man. It's about telling the truth — and what happens when a woman finally believes she deserves it.
