More About This Book

Overview

Sondra's only dream in life is to complete college and make her family proud. But when she moves into an apartment she can barely afford near the University of Southern California, her dreams start changing.

After paying for school with an academic scholarship and barely surviving with very little money, her suspicious and somewhat creepy neighbor Vick shows an interest in her. But Sondra still has her mind set on the goal of completing college. After Vick's many attempts to force his attentions on her, she gives in and starts a relationship with him, a relationship filled with domestic and sexual violence. Sondra thinks that if only she could change Vick, their relationship would work and she could finish her education.

Will Sondra be able to change Vick's violent behaviors and settle back down into the life she's always wanted for herself, or will Vick end up changing her forever?

Many people don't know that domestic violence crosses all walks of life and affects rich and poor alike, young and old, all languages and cultures, and both women and men.

Author Alma Hudson wrote The Trouble With Change to let everyone suffering from domestic violence know that there is hope even when you think things are hopeless. Hudson works as a supervisor for a legal department in Lancaster, California, and was motivated to write this book from her own personal experiences with domestic violence.

    Highly Recommended - This is a must read book.

    Anyone who has been or is being abused must read this book. This book has changed my perspective on women just leaving the abuser. I didn't realize how difficult it is in certain circumstances to just leave.

    The theme of domestic abuse is well done

    Reviewed by Dr. Karen Hutchins Pirnot for Readers Favorite

    The theme is compelling, realistic and (almost) beautifully done. Sondra is a young, naive woman who hooks up with a drug-dealing sociopath named Vick. Although she appears to understand the potentially dangerous manipulations of this man, she is initially helpless to extricate herself from the situation.

    When Sondra becomes pregnant, her honorable intentions to give birth to and raise her daughter also provide the means for her boyfriend/husband Vick to hold her hostage. The child is used as bait, and Sondra desperately seeks to protect her child while scheming to get out of what others may perceive as a hopeless situation.

    The book is small in size. The theme of domestic abuse is well done. However, the story as told by Sondra herself is a bit short on the emotional repercussions of being in such an abusive situation. Too much time was spent on unnecessary minor details. With a bit of assistance, this could be a top-notch book. As it stands, it will be educational for many a young woman who feels she is strong enough and smart enough to change an abusive boyfriend. While things may be impossible there is always hope.
