Review of I Kissed a Frog and My Prince Forgave Me
Naomi Jo Rush has compiled a book of poetry that takes you on a ride, feeling her pain, as she journeyed
through infidelity until finally bringing her back to the one she loves. Be prepared, this ride is an emotional roller coaster
that will grip you in her insecurities, passion, guts and true love. Naomi proves she is one tough cowgirl!
My personal favorites from this collection are too many to list here. Poems like First
Time, Hello Dear, Christmas Goodbye Song, Hush Little Mistress, Telling Her Everything, Answers, Missing Something, One Real
Man and My New Vows are moving and put you in touch with the feelings
Naomi crossed. Dog at Large is a hilarious _expression of the anger and pain
she obviously felt.
Naomi will find many a reader that connects with her journey in I Kissed a Frog and My
Prince Forgave Me. Many of the poems could stand on their own with little association to infidelity but when these
poems are gathered into a collection like this they tell a moving emotional story that poetry lovers everywhere will cherish.
I
Kissed a Frog and My Prince Forgave Me is a very personal journey that will hold you captive from the first
page to the last. I will be anxiously awaiting Naomi’s next book.

Kissed a Frog and My Prince Forgave Me - Review
The new book of poetry,
I Kissed a Frog and My Prince Forgave Me, is a well-crafted poetic journey through infidelity. Naomi reveals
the most vulnerable time in her married life. Her poetry teaches us that married couples tend to forget about each otheršs
needs and become absorbed in habitual day-to-day behavior. While she strained for the attention that her husband would not
or could not provide the author put on a performance of a happily content wife, when she was really screaming inside.
Her confusion ripens with the prospect of temptation. The thrill of spontaneity coupled with feeling of being desired
draws her to her lover like a drowning person would desperately clutch at a lifeline.
Craving for her husband
to notice the change and discovering she never wanted the marriage to end prompts Naomi to confess her wrong doings.
When it all is revealed, the author endures the torturous guilt while watching her husband wreathe in the pain she inflicted
upon him.
In the end, I think Naomi provides hope for us all in showing us the reasons for, and the effects of, infidelity
and walking us through the steps of recovery for their marriage. I felt encouraged that if we really show one another
how very much we are loved and open the channels of communication, our marriages have a chance of not only thwarting this
common mistake, but also to thrive in a world of strife and temptation.

I Kissed a Frog and My Prince Forgave Me is a highly emotional book. This book
tells the story of Infidelity... Real life events of ( The Other Man) .. The author tells her story
in the form of poetry.. Her writings show you how emotions can make you do things that you normally wouldn't do.. Things that
