If Only

If Only is the true story of how a life of abuse started for a fifteen year old girl, until she finally finds freedom twenty-five years later. Writing her story, she sees how her life was controlled by fear and the desire to make someone else happy. During this realization through a diary style writing, she constantly is saying, "If Only" I had known. Regretting her choices, this book hopefully can show young women the signs of sexual, mental and physical abuse before it is too late.
