This is a non-fiction, autobiographical account of my first boyfriend, and the abuses I endured at his hands.

𝜗ৎ🧸𝑻𝑬𝑫𝑫𝒀 𝑩𝑬𝑨𝑹🧸𝜗ৎ He used to call me his Teddy Bear. Soft. Gentle. Huggable. But even the softest things tear when pulled too hard. I folded his shirt the way he liked. Left the perfume he used in the drawer, untouched. I still placed his slippers next to mine. Even after he started coming home with someone else's scent. Even after he began shouting instead of kissing. "You'll never leave me," he laughed once, drunk off whiskey and ego, after throwing a bottle at the wall. "You're too scared to be alone." Maybe I was. But I was more scared of the mess. I like things clean. I like things in place. And he... was starting to feel like trash. ✴𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐕𝐄𝐋𝐕𝐄𝐓 𝐂𝐎𝐋𝐋𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍✴ # 4 -ediyoursna

Freeing Faith. by bxjade95

Based on a true story: Faith has experienced so much trauma that it both hinders and alters her reality. She trusts no man and hardly even trusts herself. She sees her attacker and hears his voice in every male she comes across, scaring her to the point of isolation. Will she finally reach out and get the help that's needed to better her life? Will she ever be free again?

An Unforeseen Love by BeccaSteele1

When all she knows is abuse, abandonment, heartache, pain, and fear can anyone make her feel safe again? What happens when her Knight in shinning armor is just a nerd who loves video games and wants to nothing more than to make her every wish, hope, and dream come true? Will she give him a chance? Or will she think that she needs to protect herself and never let another man hurt her ever again. Throughout the book I will be telling the story of events that happened from each characters point of view to hopefully give you some more insight on what each character is going through. The main part of this book is based off of my current relationship. Some of the events are made up and not fully true. I hope that you enjoy it and if you read it awesome if not I understand this is my first attempt at writing a book so please be kind.
