Hard Beginning, Happy Ending (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781973863274)

In 1973, Marabel Morgan wrote a marriage manual called The Total Woman, and shocked the publishing world when the book became a runaway best seller.

Now she tells the rest of her story, as the only child of a deeply troubled mother. To punish Husband #2, her mother shut down, literally, and went to bed-for six years. Eight-year-old Marabel was forced to take care of her and be the "mommy of the house." Those years of emotional abandonment overwhelmed her and she wondered if she could ever be free.

After she escaped her mother's grasp, Marabel found love and purpose with her husband and two beautiful daughters. But the childhood deprivation left lasting scars that threatened to destroy her marriage.

Hard Beginning, Happy Ending details this dark past and the inspirational journey that followed as she used determination and faith to recover from her trauma and save her marriage. The story of abuse in a dysfunctional family combined with life lessons demonstrate that recovering from emotional abuse is not easy, but it is possible. And worth it.
