paperback    ISBN 13: 9781876756406 | ISBN 10: 1876756403

As I stepped over smashed crockery, broken glass, pools of milk, juice and water in my kitchen, I felt a surge of anger and recalled the pain of the many black eyes, cut lips, and broken bones that Michael had inflicted on me, and I thought, ENOUGH.
 
So many of us ask, How can this be happening? How did love turn into abuse and violence? These are the questions that Patricia Hughes, renowned author of Daughters of Nazareth, continually asked herself.
 
Like so many women, she stayed in an abusive marital relationship, convinced that she somehow was responsible. Here, she writes powerfully of being pulled into the cyclical vortex of fear, abuse, giving in, forgiving.
 
But Patricia Hughes did escape the nightmare, and has built a new life.
 
Analysing her experience, Patricia Hughes provides sound and wise guidance. 'I know the pitfalls and the signs and I also know how important it is for you to evaluate your life and especially your prospects.
 
Enough is both an inspirational story and a first-hand guide for any woman in an abusive relationship.
