About

The book is memoir of a domestic abuse survivor as told through her diary and life experiences. Part one shows what domestic abuse looks like and what it feels like. Part two covers the "hooks" that hold women in an abusive home and describes healing techniques. The third part centers on how to keep women and their children safe after they have escaped. In the forth part o the book the author shares the poem that grew out of her diary and life experiences. The goal of the book is to help women realize when they are in an emotionally abusive relationship. To help them heal, and to know when to end the relationship. And once it's ended, how to stay safe and continue to heal.
