Once again brilliant, intense and gut wrenching writing that, we know, so many can relate to. Unfortunately, this horrible thing called abuse touches way too many.

Forgot to mention--to a wild rose is one of my favorite piano pieces and I could just hear her playing it with the varied expression. Really nice touch.

I played classical piano all growing up (12 years of lessons), and it’s a piece I come back to often.

Whoa, I read this chapter last night and it’s horrifying and compelling at the same time. Well done.

This is brutal. I hope there’s a happy ending, but I know that for so many women, there is nothing but pain. How do they carry on?

Thank you, Ellie. Your story is gripping, and so intense. You have really captured the essence of what this poor woman has gone through. I hope that she is able to escape this madness and have a little peace and hope if she can ever escape from her personal hell.
