Review: A glimpse at domestic abuse
Rating: 4 out of 5

This book was written as part of the Harlequin "More Than Words" series to pay tribute to women who have touched and changed lives.  In this story, Mariah had escaped an abusive marriage and has dedicated the last decade to helping others as she was helped.  She is very strong and successful.  She recognizes sign of abuse in her neighbor and through this situation, we learn more about Mariah's past.  Mariah is establishing a new crisis center for women and one of the biggest benefactors is her high school flame, Wyatt, suffering from the effects of lost relationships himself.  The storyline is more about the hero and heroine learning to trust and love again, but I appreciated the glimpse we were given of the far-reaching effects of abuse and the reminder than it is far more prevalent then we realize.
