Ex-Communication: Love Gone Wrong

by Chyna T., Ebony Thomas (Editor)

Love is often said to be blind, and Brielle 'Bri' Smith knows firsthand that love can hurt coming from the wrong man. Despite this knowledge, Bri and her best friend, Terri, applied to and were accepted to an Jacksonville College, a top HBCU, were eager to take on college life and all the challenges it carried. It didn't take long before her natural beauty caught the eye of a local spoken word artist. However, her lack of experience with love made his ' tough love' seem normal. Despite her friends' warnings, Bri couldn't bring herself to leave him alone and continued to make excuses for his behavior. Soon Bri must choose whether her love for him is more important than her love for herself. Will she continue to be blinded by love or will she emerge as a survivor?

[Book Lover · Rating 5 out of 5]

I listened to the audio book and I was left in tears. This author did an amazing job channeling how domestic violence is kept a secret by those suffering. I wished the ending was different but life isn’t always beautiful. I know she’s currently making this into a movie and it’ll be powerful. Great book! Recommend to all college aged and young women 16 and older.

Man

I cried real tears. Honestly some people glamorize domestic violence when in my opinion is the biggest fear factor. I thank you for shedding light on such a dark subject
