Synopsis

<h3>"Never, never, never give up..."<br></h3><p><br></p><p>This is the story of a woman who <em>did</em> give up, and at the worst moment of her life <strong>planned a murder/suicide</strong>. Fortunately, that fateful June day did not go as planned. "In the Name of Love" is the story of how that woman, Kathleen Rioux, came to be in that situation.<br></p><p><br></p><p> Raised in a family troubled by substance abuse, Kathleen spent her life being the good little daughter- stifling her feelings, walking on egg shells, always trying to avoid the next outburst, and dealing with her growing eating disorder. When she married and began a teaching career, Kathleen resigned herself to an unfulfilling marriage, bouyed by the joy of raising her two daughters.<br></p><p><br></p><p> Nothing could have prepared her for the hell that her life would become when she met The Predator, and she began a downward spiral that ended with her buying a hand gun in a local gun shop. Through fate, or luck, or divine intervention, Kathleen Rioux received a second chance at life, and ultimately this book is <strong>not only a cautionary tale, but also a hopeful one</strong>.</p><p><br></p><p>Kathleen Rioux was born in Shirley, MA in 1955 but grew up in New Hampshire.
