This story about Diane’s life was very hard to put down once I started reading it. It kept me on my toes knowing that so much was going on all the time in her life. While reading her book, I felt all her pain and heartache that she was going through—tears fell as each chapter was read.

In the beginning of her life, she grew up in a more than just poor family—they were the poorest family in the town. Her parents were not there for her like parents should have been. The family did what they could just to put a piece of bread on the table to eat. Not having running water—the poor conditions she had to live in and now being placed in foster care. She lived in several foster homes and was abused in one of the homes—that in itself was a great deal to handle.

Diane was out on her own at a young age—when most girls are having the time of their lives—Diane had all she could do to keep herself alive. The relationships that she dealt with that brought more abuse in her life as an adult—that was more than most people could endure in a life time. Diane having to live her life on the run not being able to enjoy what life had to bring. Finally finding that special angel, her husband David—the only person in her life that she could really trust and love for the rest of her life. She found happiness in love at last.

Anyone reading this book will know that Diane went through so much physical, sexual, and emotional abuse in her life time. How did she survive it all? How that Diane has written her story to share to help others with her own life experiences. This story may make such an impact on others and maybe they will realize that they do not have to deal with abuse alone.

I strongly suggest others to read this book.
