With perfectly timed dance moves to "My Eyes Adored You," Charlo Spencer takes her. But he changes after their honeymoon. When Charlo first strikes her, she is stunned. His violent outbursts increase as slaps and bruises become yanked-out hair, broken fingers, and knocked-out teeth. While raising four children, she continues to be abused; she loses self-respect, denies how bleak things are, and drinks heavily. Once after blackening her eye, Charlo asks how she got it. Knowing his reaction depends on her answer, she claims to have walked into the bedroom door. Genre:  Psychological fiction. Domestic fiction. Women's fiction.
