About this ebook
Katie meets David and falls in love. She moves in with him, but the relationship turns difficult and dangerous when David begins to steal her money and hurt her. Katie quickly gets help through her GP. After a stay in a refuge, Katie begins a new life with a new sense of confidence. Domestic abuse affects millions of people in the UK, causing profound emotional and physical harm. Support to stop the abuse and deal with its effects is vital. This book will help people of all ages and abilities to recognise some of the different types of abuse that can happen in relationships, how to seek help, and how a safe and rewarding life can follow after abuse.
