“this book affected me so much i had to put it down and wait to go back to it. It is almost unbelievable this is her first book. If you have been in any kind of abusive relationship, this book will haunt you. Every word rings true, the plot confused me at first but i soon got the hang of it. The characters are very well written, especially the abusive bastard at the center. I could relate to the feelings and experiences of Catherine. Can't wait to read any other books by this author.”
