Is there a category for literary/chick lit/suspense?  ★★★★★ Misogynist men are attractive and persuasive, but marry one and the mask comes off. A psychological thriller like no other.  ★★★★★ "I finished the book the first night. Stayed up way too late because it kept me riveted. I admire how the author tastefully handled a tough subject like abuse." --Norma Rudolph, author  ★★★★★ A thrill ride from page one  ★★★★★ ECHO OF ESCAPE is an adult suspense thriller that follows a young married woman on a daunting emotional journey through spousal abuse, kidnapping, tragedy, and forbidden love.  ★★★★★ Alyssa is a well-drawn character.

But she believes it for now. It'll take being kidnapped, struggling to escape, and facing something far worse to learn that she's worthy of a truer love than her husband can give her.  ★★★★★ This contemporary women's fiction exposes a husband's misogyny and shows how an oppressed woman can find her strength again.
