It hit home

I have just gotten out of relationship similar to Maddy's in December. This book really hit home for me. It was a great read about being in mental,emotional abusive relationship. When most people here the word abuse they think physical,that is not always true. When Jack had rough sex with Maddy that also reminded me of my relationship with my ex. Well the book is really great read and a fast one too. I finished it in about 3 hours.

Best Work Yet

I am an avid Steel reader and couldn't put this one down. Not only is the subject one that needs addressing but the characters and story line pull you in and put you in Maddy's place. I believe that Ms. Steel only gets better and this book defintely proves it.

Shocking But True!!

This kind of abuse can happen to anyone rich or poor. Some people just don't realize that it is really happening to them. Danielle Steel is hit the core of the problem of this kind of abuse.

WHEN I FIRST STARTED THIS BOOK, I WASNT SURE WHAT TO EXPECT. I CAN SAY I WAS SO PLEASENTLY SURPRISED. A LOT OF AUTHORS HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, BUT THIS WAS SUCH A DIFFERENT LOOK AT IT. I READ THIS BOOK IN ABOUT 24 HRS. I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN, AS WITH MOST OF MS. STEEL'S BOOKS. I HAVE READ EVERY ONE OF HER BOOKS, AND I CAN SAY THIS ONE WAS INCREDABLE. I LOVED THE STORY, THE CHARACTORS, AND THE EMOTIONS. I CANT WAIT FOR A NEW BOOK TO COME OUT.

A Journey worth taking.

As usual Danielle has taken a subject that is much on the minds of women today. Abuse, for years abuse was thought of as black and blue marks on the outside but in reality more women suffer from the black and blue marks on the inside. These women can be seen just as our Maddy is,as beautiful, successful, and with a got it together attitude. But all of this is a front, many a night these women are abuse through bad language and put downs that creates a feeling of being useless, ugly,un-loved and a feeling of never doing anything right. This book tells of someone who escapes the a life of black and blue on the outside to be plunged into a life of black and blue on the inside. This is a story of Maddy's escape a second time. I would recomend this book to all women but especially the one's that live a life like Maddy's, a life that makes them wonder if they can take the journey and be happy or are they destined to a life of co-dependency that they will never escape from.
