From the Author:
I have felt the hand of Domestic Violence in my life. I deal
with it every day in my job as a police officer. It is a tough subject that few
want to tackle, but it needs to be spoken about. Victims need to understand
they are not at fault. They need to know they can get help and get away. They
need to know that there are people who will help them.
Whether I’ll Live or Die is a very intense novel that will
bring to light the nasty parts of domestic violence; the fear, the
embarrassment, and the self-blame. It
will show you what a young victim goes through while at the same time showing
you how a female police officer must deal with it in the legal sense.
It is not a light hearted love story, no fairytale romance
here. This is what real life is like in the hands of an abuser.
What Readers are Saying:
“I could not put
this book down until I finished reading it. Whether or not you have ever gone
through mental, verbal or physical abuse, this book will strike the cord
somewhere deep inside, it will make you feel the pain and anguish of the people
brought to life in the story. The book will also give hope. Hope that no matter
what the circumstances are, life does not have to stay this bad. It can change
and be different. This book helps to learn to protect ourselves (whether you
are a man, a woman or a child) against the situations anyone can come across
when they expect it the least.” Reader…Tatiana L.
