This book was good from the beginning to the end. I was hooked on the first page. The author did a very good job with the characters. This book also taught me the importance of forgiving and healing and how they both work together.

This is a brilliant book that will give any woman a great dose of encouragement, whether she thinks she needs it or not! The character Ruth along with her friends Clara, Bernie, and May will remind everyone woman of a friend that she has or once had. The way the protagonist Ruth overcomes her struggles and even her ability to admit her faults will empower encouragement into your heart. The novel absolutely caught my attention from page 1 to the end. I laughed out loud and wanted to cry at times. J.D. Mason definitely has a gift and I intend on reading each of her books I recommend this book for every WOMAN to READ!

This was a great book. I finished it in 1 day. This book really empowered me. Although I'm not suffering physical abuse, I was kind of stuck in a rut. I recommend all ladies to read this book. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS BOOK WAS A VERY, VERY GOOD READ WITH SOME REALLY GOOD LESSONS. RUTH WAS AN ABUSED WOMEN THAT FINALLY STOOD UP AND MOVED ON WITH HER LIFE, THIS STORY FOCUSES ON HER JOURNEY AND HER RELATIONSHIPS AFTER. VERY GOOD BOOK
