A Battered Woman’s Desperate Struggle to Survive

Nationally known speaker and writer Robert Davidson released his latest book, The Beast I Loved, the true story of young mother June Briand who shared an intense bond with her pathologically violent husband, a monster who physically and sexually tortured, degraded and dominated her so relentlessly that she refused to believe he was dead even after she killed him.

“As gripping as THE BURNING BED.” —John Saul, New York Times Bestselling Author

“Riveting—often horrifying—and urgently needed for our time.” —Susan Page, bestselling author and Executive Director of the acclaimed San Miguel Writers’ Conference

Why didn’t she just leave? The author answers that question explicitly while exposing the twisted dynamics of a relationship that enslaved a woman—and drove her to kill the beast she loved when she was finally out of hope, out of time, and out of her mind.  

The Beast I Loved: A Battered Woman’s Desperate Struggle To Survive has released from WildBlue Press.
