Omschrijving

Maggie Oliver has everything she ever wanted—beautiful children, a lovely home, and financial security. She is well taken care of—a fact her husband reminds her of, often. So what if he has his share of discreet dalliances?

She'd agreed to the one-sided open marriage out of her own free will, and with careful consideration. He wanted his freedom. She wanted and needed the security he offered. Weighing the consequences, she vowed to make the arrangement work for them both.

But when the baby came, and then two more, things changed. Max became less tolerant and increasingly abusive—mentally and physically. His belittling became a thing in front of the kids and guests, embarrassing Maggie, and establishing his control over her. When they were alone, the belittling frequently turned to battering.

Nearly twenty years later, Maggie knows she is losing herself.

When her teenage daughter, Carol, starts stepping into similar types of unhealthy relationships with young men, Maggie knows things must change.

Then a family tragedy throws all their worlds into a downward spiral. Suddenly, Maggie's path to finding herself takes an awkward, ugly turn—and the battle she thought she would fight with her husband, turns into a struggle to not only save herself, but her family.
