Anastasia Alexander

Silent Cries Anastasia Alexander

Publisher Marketing: An Intense, Emotional Journey Charlene believes she's an ordinary housewife and mother with ordinary challenges. Gradually, she comes to realize her marriage isn't healthy and that her husband's treatment isn't normal. Relying only on her own courage and the help of a few friends, she struggles to free herself and her children from a relationship that has turned their lives into a living nightmare. Charlene soon discovers that altering her relationship is only half the battle and finding what she really needs takes just as much courage as recognizing the problem in the first place. Trusting again-and making love work-may be the biggest challenge of all. Editorial Reviews "This novel is fascinating. I couldn't stop reading! I had to find out if Charlene would get free and if she could love again." -Maria Anderson, reader and editor "Silent Cries is an authentic and true-to-life depiction of one woman's exodus from a life of psychological and physical servitude to one of empowerment and self-determination. This story captures the persistence and fortitude required to exit a life with an abuser without sacrificing gentleness and wisdom." -Donna R. B. Rogers, PhD, Licensed Psychologist, Founder, Sound for Healing Institute Contributor Bio:  Alexander, Anastasia Anastasia Alexander doesn't have the answers to life's love questions. What she does know is that love in the 21st Century is complex. There are no easy answers, and there is a lot of richness and juiciness in exploring all the complexity that love brings. Her credentials are two failed marriages, equaling twenty-three years of marriage and a willingness to believe that maybe a third one will be her lucky number. Or she might decide to compete with Elizabeth Taylor for who can get married the most times. It is yet to be determined which option she's going to go for, but until then she pours her passion and sarcasm for relationships into her stories.
