Victims of Domestic Abuse and their Pets
From the book launch date of November 1, 2014 to December 31st, 5% of all sales for FOR I HAVE SINNED will be donated to Shelters With Heart, a New York City organization that gives shelter to victims of domestic violence and their pets. Many victims are reluctant to leave their pets behind when they make the decision to escape from domestic violence. Even at the risk of their own lives, they may stay behind to protect a beloved pet. As my character Cate Harlow in FOR I HAVE SINNED is a strong role model for women, I felt it only right to use proceeds from my book to help support Shelters With Heart. All those who purchase my book will be helping victims and their pets to start new lives and that is a precious gift. Thank you to all who help.
