Product Description
From the No 1 bestselling author of Damaged, the gripping story of a woman caught in a horrific cycle of abuse - and the desperate lengths she must go to, to escape.
When Aisha spots an ad for a 'personal introductory service for professionals' in the newspaper, she could never have guessed it would lead to such a perfect marriage. But you should be careful what you wish for…
Mark is sorry the first time he hits Aisha. His tears make her all the more determined to be a better wife; not to let herself down again. But however hard Aisha tries, she can't live up to Mark's impossible expectations – or escape his terrifying, violent temper. Soon she is trapped in a cycle of horrific abuse and imprisonment. And with two young children to protect, Aisha must draw on what strength she has left to find an escape.
What follows is something so devastating it plunges Aisha into her darkest days yet. Is the price she must pay for freedom too high?

Format:Paperback
With ease and diplomacy Cathy tells the story of Aisha's life through love, loss & betrayal. A difficult subject of predatory grooming, emotional and physical abuse, yet perfectly told in a factual light, with a fast engrossing pace; you won't want to put this book down! A truly emotional and heartbreaking story approached with diplomacy and compassion as only Cathy knows how. I have read many of Cathy's previous books, but was a little unsure as this was not focused on her role as a foster carer, however with such a wonderfully written story I was not let down at all!

Cathy has truimphed again another excellent book that had me on the edge of my chair, also read in two sittings only interupted by cooking lunch. Also agree it would make an excellent film.

Having read almost all of Cathy's books l think this is the most one so far. It is an excellent story and really made me think about domestic violence and how brave the children and adults are that have to face this everyday.I would urge everyone to buy this book. I do prefer reading the books that Cathy and her family are in but this book was the best and l surprisingly loved it :)
