“Sleeping With The Enemy” Confronts The Most Dangerous Betrayal Of All The One Within

(MENAFN- GetNews) A Raw, Faith-Centered Memoir by Paulette D. Simmons Explores Betrayal, Identity, and Spiritual Awakening

Atlanta, Georgia - In Sleeping With the Enemy: Betrayed, Broken, and Born Again with Purpose, author Paulette D. Simmons delivers an unflinching spiritual memoir that reframes betrayal not as a single act committed by another, but as a slow erosion of identity, discernment, and self-trust.

This is not a sensational exposé.It is a reckoning.

Spanning childhood faith, prophetic calling, marriage, spiritual warfare, emotional captivity, and ultimate restoration, Sleeping With the Enemy documents a woman's journey through deception, silence, and self-abandonment; and the moment truth dismantles every illusion she worked to protect.

At the heart of the book is a haunting realization: the enemy was not only the man beside her, but the voice within that taught her to confuse endurance with obedience, silence with strength, and sacrifice with love.

Written in poetic, prayer-soaked prose, Simmons traces how early spiritual sensitivity and calling were slowly muted through compromise, familiarity, and misplaced loyalty. What begins as a story of love and faith gradually reveals itself as a battle for identity, authority, and spiritual alignment.

Rather than assigning blame, the book turns the lens inward; examining how unhealed wounds, ignored warnings, and distorted theology can lead believers to remain in situations God never called them to endure.

Throughout the narrative, Scripture is not used as decoration, but as confrontation. Readers are taken through cycles of covering, humiliation, captivity, and awakening, culminating in a powerful reclaiming of voice, boundaries, and spiritual authority.

Sleeping With the Enemy speaks directly to women of faith who have ever:

• Stayed too long out of loyalty
• Confused patience with permission
• Used Scripture to excuse mistreatment
• Lost themselves while trying to save someone else

This is a testimony of deliverance, but not the polished kind. It is messy, honest, and deeply spiritual; confronting the cost of staying silent and the courage required to tell the truth.

Ultimately, the book declares a hard-earned truth: God does not just rescue - He reveals, refines, and restores identity.

“When betrayal forces truth into the light." ✮✮✮✮✮

"Sleeping With the Enemy is a raw and unflinching memoir that explores betrayal not only as something done to us, but as something we sometimes endure in silence. With spiritual depth and emotional honesty, the book guides readers through pain, discernment, and the hard journey toward healing and self-restoration." - Jane, Author
