JACKSONVILLE, FL (May 16, 2016) - Victims of domestic abuse as well as fanatics of creative memoirs are in for an exciting treat following the launch of the new book, Survivor.
Written by Denise Jenkins James Connors, Survivor is a true story of a young, ambitious lady who took a gamble on love and the disastrous events that followed.
The main character, Denise, was in the top of her high school class and focused on her future when she decided to give love a chance. Her suitor, Jimmy, wooed her and he seemed to be the perfect guy until things started to change. The relationship spiraled out of control and as it grew more unstable, so did Denise's well being. In her quest for love, Denise finds more than a relationship. But it was only her family and faith that guided her through extremes she couldn't have imagined for her life.
Like Denise, many young ladies have discovered that not all love stories end in "Happily Ever After". According to statistics from the Domestic Violence Center, 13 percent of teenage girls have been in a relationship where they have been abused. Additionally, 1 in 5 teenage girls have been in a relationship with a boyfriend that had threatened violence or self-harm if presented with a breakup.
When asked about her motivation to write the book Connors said, "I wanted to share my experiences of being in a volatile and violent relationship. My story has a tone of survival that I hope will inspire readers."
Despite being a non-fiction book, Survivor is a work of art. The memoir has all the elements of an exciting read: from unexpected twists and turns to descriptive imagery and emotion. This is a story that will leave an indelible mark on the minds of readers.
Survivor is available in paperback format for a retail price of $9.95.
Ebooks available for $5.99 via Amazon and Barnes & Noble Nook Press.
