I am looking for books where the main female character was physically abused in the past and has escaped the relationship in some way and is moving on to a healthier romance. Harlequin romances are acceptable

I am thinking of Into the darkest corner by Elizabeth Haynes. It is a very intense and raw so before reading it. Do your spiritual check up.
Deerskin by Robin McKinley (fantasy)Main character is abused by a trusted family member and she escapes, heals her wounds slowly, and goes through a journey of self-discovery.
Safe Haven by Nicholas SparksSafe by Ryan Michele
Unbeautifully Loved by Emma Grayson
Axel by Harper Sloan
Blue-Eyed Devil by Lisa Kleypas
..and I will try to remember more :)
Defying the Odds by Kele MoonLauren DaneCraving Constellations by Nicole Jacquelyn
Heaven and Hell by Kristen Ashley
Coming Undone by Lauren Dane (but she is just remembering her past marriage, the plot is after the marriage)
Never Too Much by Lori Foster
Malice's Possession by Jenika Snow
Let Me In by Erin McCarthy
Full Contact by Sidney Halston
Trashy by Cambria Hebert
Ace's Redemption by A.C. Bextor
Burying Water by K.A. Tucker
Whiskey Lullaby by Dawn Martens
The Missing Link by J.M. Sevilla
The Salvation of Vengeance by Nancy Haviland
Dare (Brothers of Ink and Steel) by Allie Juliette Mousseau
Beautiful Life by Brynne Asher
...well that's about it... I guess you could say I like to read books with this kinf of plot :)
These have a lighter feel, but I thought I'd throw them out there. This series starts with The Perfect Rake and deals with 5 sisters who had an abusive grandfather.
Great collection here. I would add Cherokee Thunder by Rachel Lee and The Long Masquerade by Madeleine Brent (which also contains instances of rape, per your other request).
I keep recommending this post from RTbookreviews, but it's got a lot of suggestions for books whee heroine was in an abusive relationship, so worth repeating...http://forums.rtbookreviews.com/viewt...
