The general belief is that relationships are loving and fulfilling, but what happens when the love story turns into fear and horror? Abuse inside a relationship is one of the worst things a person can experience. Too often the signs are misunderstood, aren't even realized, or the sufferer settles for being treated in ways they shouldn't be treated. The abused person lives in fear, lost and confused. Some don't know how to change it. Shannon Airmid learned first hand how frightening a relationship can become. Hard learned experiences led her to discover patterns, first from her own bad relationship and then from friends and other abused women. Shannon realized there were signs to every abusive relationship from the very first meeting. With the intention of helping other women avoid or escape a destructive relationship, Airmid shares everything she's learned through her months of abuse and years of recovery inside the pages of Red Flags of a Bad Relationship.
