Angebote / Angebote:
Do you stay in a toxic marriage if leaving means never seeing the children again? Is it rape if you don't say no? Liette Cormier ponders these and other questions in her intimate and raw memoir. Having grown up in a loving family, Liette lived life with anticipation and confidence. At twenty-four, yearning for adventure, she moved into an old school bus with a man twelve years her senior and his two pre-teenagers, becoming an instant full-time stepmom. Fast forward two years, she lies in bed, unable to get up. The memory of his fist bending the steering wheel the night before leaves her body numb. The kids knock on the door and peek inside her bedroom. She reassures them, it's just the flu. In her remarkable memoir on love and resilience, Liette shares her journey as a stepmother, her struggles with abuse and trauma, and how she navigated through it all to heal. The story includes hilarious anecdotes to lighten up the reader's mood as they make their way through the story that spans decades.
