Letting Go - Kindle ebook by Belinda Tors

In Lois's group, several members who had left their husbands returned because they couldn't make it on their own. But I had taken the chance. Other women had made it. I believed I could, too...

Margery Arturo has two children and an abusive husband, Tony. Finally summoning her courage and her meager resources, she leaves her husband of twenty years while he is away on a business trip out of state. With her teenage daughter, Lola, Margery manages to find an apartment and get a job at a women's shelter as a counselor. Things are starting to look up. But Tony continues to follow her wherever she goes and turns up at their daughter's school. He makes threats and refuses to give her child support and monies he owes her in a divorce settlement. Margery soon learns that leaving a violent husband has more risks than possibly getting beaten up or killed after she departs. Will Margery be able to make it on her own?
