Written by a seasoned clinician, E. Renea Snyder brings a rare dual perspective: the professional trained to recognize trauma, and the woman who lived it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat begins as a relationship built on shared values and purpose slowly reveals itself through subtle shifts-control masked as care, intensity mistaken for love, and a world that feels expansive until it quietly closes in.
