About this listen

 The most heartbreaking decision a mother could make…

BEATEN

Glenda Jenkins has been beaten by her husband Harry one too many times – and this time he’s put her in a hospital bed. Battered and bruised, Glenda slowly makes her recovery. But she fears what awaits her back at home…

BROKEN

When Glenda meets kind hospital porter Frank, he offers her a lifeline she can’t refuse. The pair decide to run away together, escaping the terror of Harry. But, fearing for her life, Glenda has to make the biggest sacrifice of all and leave her baby, Johnnie, behind.

BEREFT

Safe on the Kent coast, Glenda finally has the life she dreamed of. But without Johnnie, she’s a broken woman. Will she ever see her baby again? And will she ever be able to escape the fearsome shadow of Harry after all?

kitty Neale. What can I say!!! Fantastic. Tears of sadness and joy. I have download both your books and I’m now on the third. Please hurry and write more. I feel that your books need to be made into a film. Annie Aldington. Fantastic narrator. I’m there in the moment

Wow!!

a bit concerned that after reading two books by this writer, they both have a brother and sister who have slept together. I'm wondering if I read another one, will that be the same. apart from that, I really enjoyed the storyline until Johnny met Polly, and especially him knowing, just a bit shocking really.

great story, but incest in both books???
