About this listen

In the eye of the storm, one man’s journey from despair to redemption will captivate your heart.

Archer Cook’s life was a whirlwind of chaos and pain. Trapped in an abusive relationship with a partner exhibiting severe narcissistic and borderline personality disorder symptoms, Archer endured four and a half years of emotional and physical torment. With two children to protect, he finally found the courage to escape, but the scars ran deep.

Battling PTSD, anxiety, and depression, Archer turned to alcohol, punishing himself for his past decisions. His journey took him from the fields of Germany to the vibrant streets of New Orleans, only to be uprooted again by Hurricane Katrina to settle in Shreveport. A former Air Force member, Archer’s story is one of resilience, hope, and the relentless pursuit of a better life. Will he find the peace and happiness he so desperately seeks?

Her Second Husband is a raw, emotionally charged memoir bravely spotlighting male domestic abuse. Good: Its unflinching honesty, portrayal of physical and emotional control, and depiction of PTSD, anxiety, and alcoholism render it powerful and rare. Bad: Some may find the narrative uneven or hard to endure; a more polished structure could have enhanced its readability. Overall, it’s a vital, unvarnished account.
