Description: Turtle Story 2 – Life on the Other Side of Abuse is a follow-up to my escape from a long endured abusive relationship. Living on the other side – FREEDOM – has been my destination to a dream of peace and freedom. I wrote this book to encourage those who are rebuilding lives that were torn apart by abuse, to let them know that there is always hope. This hope is built on a bridge of fortitude, love, and support from carefully chosen people, passions, and organizations within the community. This is my story, this is my song… Everybody has their own unique story to share with the world. I hope that by sharing my story, I will help to change a life or even save one.
