Cruel Love

Amanda was the tender age of sixteen when she got pregnant and married John Thomas. He was the man of her dreams. She just didn’t know those dreams would become nightmares. He was loving and kind, just a little domineering, when they dated. She thought this was just because he loved her. Once married, the true nature of the beast came out. He would not tolerate insubordination by anyone, not even his wife. He became a crazed animal when provoked. She was driven to that one fatal moment when his life ended and her struggle began. But she would have to remember what her mind chose to forget: to save herself.
