Not Another Sarah: Avoiding and Escaping Abuse
by Sarah E. Southerland
Not Another Sarah chronicles my abusive relationship from its first wonderful moments to the terrible day when I ran for my life to the final day of the court process.
I have also written what I wish my family, friends, and I had known when I first met my abusive ex-husband. I discuss emotional, physical, and sexual abuse
from a spiritual perspective and how to identify abusive relationships through personal accounts, simplified definitions, clear examples, and practical advice. Where necessary, a few names and locations have been changed, but overall, everything in this book really happened.
I hope that through reading Not Another Sarah the reader will gain a more complete knowledge of abuse and understand who is vulnerable to abuse, how to escape or help others escape, and how to heal. I hope
readers will make better choices than the ones I made; only then will I succeed in my goal for this book: to
prevent another case of abuse and to make sure there is not another “Sarah” in this world.
