Don't Die For Love: Escape the Cycle of Violence

'Across the nation women are entering the homes of friends or family, domestic violence shelters, emergency rooms, doctor's offices, substance abuse treatment programs, and even prison as a result of attempting to cope with domestic violence by an intimate partner. Many women take their children and leave the abusive environment, only to return time and time again, succumbing to the promises of their intimate partner that it will 'never happen again.' But, of course, it does happen again and again and again; sometimes ending in serious injury, severe emotional breakdown (requiring psychiatric treatment) and in extreme cases, death...' Eva Howard, MSW, LCSW, LSCSW 'The story is compelling. I read it in one sitting. It is amazing to imagine how a woman could have the strength necessary to change her life and leave all she knew. I think this book can make a difference for women going through the same or similar situation.' Ruthann Eason
