One of the books was biblically based, two were comical, one was clinical, one was fiction, and yet another was autobiographical, similar tomy own. I was somewhat disappointed, however, to find that a book involving mother and daughter-in-law horror stories had already been written, for that was my plan, too.I hope this memoir serves as a tool for women and men strugglingto havelasting and improved changes in their relationships. This memoir recounts the negative experiences my husband and I endured. If you are a woman and weary of the phoniness, the stereotypes, and the implied obligations of the title, daughter-in-law, know you are not alone.  Also, if you are a man in the middle of a sour mother -- daughter-in-law relationship, you, too, are not alone.Do not be discouraged.  Remember the adage:  "Hope springs eternal."      The names in this memoir have been changed to protect the innocent little lives negatively affected by the very family claiming they knew what was best.Nothing, unfortunately, could be further from the truth as you'll discover. From the Back Cover Follow one woman's story as she journeys through a torrent of deceptions and fabrications that kept a family divided.  Her memoir recounts the devastating effects on her, her husband, and his children.  Its purpose is to prepare those in a similar dilemma for the in-law storm.
