It Is Forgiven: Surviving Abuse and Betrayal (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781462085910)

She was a bullied child. She was a rape victim. She was a battered woman. She was a betrayed daughter and goddaughter. She was a refugee. But she is a survivor.

In this memoir, author EMP narrates her life journey, sharing her hopes, her dreams, and her darkest moments. She shares the details about her upbringing in Hungary, her tormented childhood and teen years, her introduction to the man who would become her abuser, and her move to a foreign country. It Is Forgiven recounts her experiences of domestic violence, emotional and sexual abuse, and years and years of betrayal. She examines how one horrific event led to another and how the abuse escalated in both frequency and violence.

It Is Forgiven tells the story of a battered woman and of her courage in escaping from the situation to benefit her and her young children. It is a story that inspires hope and encourages other women facing similar circumstances to speak out instead of suffering in silence.
