“A compelling story that traces the journey of a young girl's experiences, personal growth, and unwavering determination.”
“This tale of love challenged every part of our covenant, far from ordinary in every sense. And yet, despite its unconventional nature, I found myself inexplicably drawn to this man. He embodied a destiny untold, a path intricately woven with manipulations that surpassed even my wildest dreams. It became a revelation. A stark reminder that the choices we make for love can bear an awful price.”
PROLOGUE
I was never taught about men. Therefore, I slept right next to someone I should have avoided for over forty years. How could I put up, live with, and love someone with so many illicit characteristics? Even I surprised myself. It’s what you don’t know that can hurt you, and I became a product of what I didn’t know. I’m no longer the same individual. My true identity has been lost forever. I’m a hybrid, still very much myself, but with my husband’s influences interwoven in every nerve and fiber within me. I couldn’t think without seeking his opinion, and I couldn’t act without fearing his reprisal.
