Dragons and Butterflies 2: War With Her Father

Get your hankies out! Here's the second in the Jean Ridgeway biographical series from Marie Jensen.

'War With Her Father' is the second in a series of six books, charting Jean's colourful life. Jean is an abused child who survives. A victim to start with, she worked through her issues. Her past haunted her for many years. Time is a great healer. Pain and suffering can give you inner strength, or break you.

Each book in the series covers a stage in Jean's life, one girl's story. This book covers her adolescent years. Once you have read Jean's story, you will understand more about courage and cowardice.

'In this brilliant second book of a six-part series, Jean Ridgeway's ongoing battle with her domestic abuser develops into a psychological, and sometimes physical war. But as Jean reaches adolescence, she also has to deal with evolving family relationships, boyfriend troubles, school issues, deceit, jealously, heartbreak and tragedy.

'In the central conflict between Jean and her abuser, there can only be one winner. Jean strives for her goals of happiness and safety, but in the end, her very physical and mental well-being come under threat, as her visions of the future become as heart-wrenching, as her experiences of the past and present....

''War With Her Father' is a hugely compelling study of family relationships at their most dysfunctional. The book also serves as a fascinating dissertation on adolescent mental health, made all the more engaging, by the fact that it is based on a true story.' STEVE STONE
