    About this ebook

    Have you ever reached a point where you’re tired of feeling alone, scared, and trapped in the hopelessness of a toxic relationship?

    Well, that’s my life. I’m stuck in this house, trapped in this life. I thought things would get better once my father died, but I was wrong. Allowing my boyfriend to move in only made matters worse.

    I spend each day cooking and cleaning, utterly dependent on my alcoholic mother and crazy boyfriend. With each day that passes, I feel more and more hopeless, and I’m scared this cycle of misery will never end.

    My father abused my mother, and now my boyfriend is abusing me. Do I accept that this life is my fate? Or is the universe trying to show me another way?

    If you liked the suspense of Sleeping with the Enemy by Nancy Price or the bravery shown in Stephanie Land’s The Maid, you’ll enjoy the short story, Anna, Wake Up.

    Will I bend till I break, or will I find enough courage to break free? Click the CHECKOUT button at the top of the page to find out.
