Trauma Made Her Think Beating is Love.

For 23 years, I thought if a man does not beat you, he does not love you. A true Lagos face-me-I-face-you story. He was a tailor. He beat me with stool and dustbin and stained my white gown with blood. Same night, his sister settled us. The next morning, he sewed a new gown for me. I stayed because of home trauma and fear of starting over. This book is for every girl who learned love wrong. Beating is not love. Real love is peace.
