Then Kathy backs up and shows us a glimpse into her growing up years, along with photographs.
Kathy grew up with a loving and stable family. Her parents had been high school sweethearts. When her mom told stories of how they fell in love, Kathy was mesmerized. She dreamed of finding a man who would care for her like her own father loved and cared for her mother. She wanted to find her own “Prince Charming.”
One day she met a tall, likable man whose broad smile warmed her heart. Was he the prince she'd been waiting for? Their relationship moved so fast. He asked her to marry him. She never even entertained the idea that her feelings of discomfort were warning signs. Even when uncertainly washed over her. Even when he picked her up for a date with the strong stench of alcohol filling the car. Even when a friend said, “You don't have to marry him.”
She didn't listen. She didn't call off the wedding.
He was tender and loving, when he was sober. She told herself it would get better. It didn't. Not even after two children. Then came the final straw, her world crumbled and she filed for a divorce.
Single again. Her master's degree in nursing enabled her to land a job. She went through a few years of struggles, healing, and a series of sporadic dating. But no one serious. Until she met the man who sent her heart fluttering. His voice was smooth with a touch of a Southern drawl. It had been a long time since she felt excited about a man. The attraction was mutual. Kathy had hope for a second chance at love. After a few weeks they were married.
But new hope turned into a reign of terror. Kathy shows true courage to do what she thinks is best, for the safety of herself and her children. This is a must read. I couldn't put it down and look for more great books from Kathy.… (meer)
