Leslie Morgan Steiner, New York Times-bestselling author of Crazy Love

«Beverly Gooden has written a brave, powerful, intimate book that takes us inside the dynamics of abusive relationships-why people stay, and how hard it can be to leave. The gift of Surviving is Beverly's honesty. Read Surviving to know that you are not alone in your own journey toward self-love after abuse. You will find yourself growing stronger with each page.»
