TheOneWhoGotAway.

Through it all, she still stands tall.

For three years, she kept her secret hidden-every bruise, every broken promise, every night her boyfriend's drinking turned into violence. She told no one. She carried it all alone.

Deciding she has had enough, she turns to her family for help. Only finding herself asking more questions about life than finding answers.

Until she meets him.

With him, she finds the courage to share the truth about the life she's been forced to endure. And in return, he offers her something she never thought she deserved: hope.

As her past threatens to pull her back under, she's faced with a choice-cling to the pain she knows, or step into a new beginning with the man who sees her strength, even when she can't.
