One in four: the number of women who will experience
domestic abuse or violence. Three per day: the number of
women killed in domestic disputes. Ten million: the number
of children exposed to domestic violence each year. AND THEY
ARE BEHIND CLOSED DOORS EVERYWHERE, IN EVERY WALK OF LIFE. Imagine an attractive, high-powered, female executive who
realizes that her twenty-year relationship has turned her
into a victim of domestic abuse. Imagine there are children
to consider. And imagine the emotional abuse she has
endured, abuse that has escalated as she questions her own
culpability in allowing it, becomes physical and potentially
fatal. Every year, domestic abuse – whether physical, financial, or
emotional – affects one in four women in the country. That’s
more than are affected by breast, ovarian, and lung cancers
combined. Susan Sparks wants to change this.SPARKS IN LOVE
is a survivor’s story. Giving you a look from the inside, it
shows what happens when you fall in love with the wrong
person and ignore the warning signs. Highlighting the signs of domestic abuse with stories from
her own life, Sparks takes the reader on a journey designed
to expose both the subtle and overt aspects of abuse.A
cautionary tale to those entering relationships, as well as
reassurance to those still enmeshed in abuse, the message is
clear: there are safe ways out and life after abuse. Each
victim has the right to become a SODA™: a Survivor of
Domestic Abuse. Eminently readable, poignant and informative, compelling and
horrifying, SPARKS IN LOVE is an inspirational telling of
one woman’s story that becomes everywoman’s story for the
one in four women who become victims of domestic abuse.
