    Highly recommended

    This book was a God send! It hit upon every emotion you could think of and it explained that you are not crazy to feel the way you do after abuse. It has helped me so much and I highly recommend this to anyone that has had or is having abuse in their life. It's so good to know that someone understands.

    Wonderful!!!!!!!!!!

    This book is great for women at any stage of healing. When you have been abused, you feel so alone. After reading a book like this, you realize you are not alone. It is a wonderful book, and I am thankful that the authors realize what abused women have been through and continue to go through years after the relationship ends. THANK YOU!!!!
