When you peruse the myriad of reviews of The Bigmaist many readers admire Turner-Thompson for her bravery of telling her story in public. A similar amount of people finish the book wondering why on earth she went so far, and so deep into the relationship with Jordan when there were so many red flags. It is a natural thing to wonder, but we also fool ourselves if we think we will not be so easily taken in. A huge amount of people fall foul every year to scams sometimes romantic, often monetary, in person, online and over the phone. None of the people who are caught out ever thought before they would be the kind of person who would fall foul of such duplicitousness. Don't we all like the think, to hope, that we would be the one who would turn the tide and be far too clever for those kinds of schemes.
