About the Book

The divorce rate for second marriages is 60 to 67 percent. The primary driver, identified consistently across decades of research: stepchildren. Not a lack of love, not incompatibility, not communication failure in the abstract -- the specific pressures of raising someone else's children while trying to protect the relationship that brought you together in the first place. Blended and Broken is a direct, research-grounded guide for couples navigating exactly this: the stepchild who resists every attempt at connection, the ex-spouse who never fully leaves, the loyalty conflicts that put the biological parent perpetually between their children and their partner, the favoritism accusations, the discipline battles, and the slow erosion of a couple bond that neither person wanted to lose. It speaks to both partners simultaneously -- the stepparent who has been showing up for a family that did not ask for them, and the biological parent caught between the people they love -- with the specific tools, scripts, and frameworks that make the difference between a blended family that survives this and one that does not.

Blended and Broken moves through five stages: an honest reality check on what blended families actually look like according to the research; the specific work of protecting the couple bond under constant external pressure; the ex-spouse and co-parenting dynamic addressed directly, with scripts for every level of difficulty from cooperative to toxic; the practical daily architecture of a functional blended home including discipline frameworks, boundary-setting, and family meeting structures; and the longer horizon of what a genuinely thriving blended family looks like when the work is sustained. This is not a book about making blended family life easy. It is a book about making it workable -- for the couple, and for the children who deserve the stability of a well-functioning home, even if they did not choose the one they are in.
