ABANDONED. girl getting out of abusive relationship with a guy who works for a senator

[Remi D.]

Hi everyone! this is driving me crazy because I can't remember this book that is so intense. Its about this woman who was in a very abusive relationship and the guy was a control freak who worked for a corrupt senator. The girl escapes and her love interest is the best. For some reason i think she has family in California and then moves to the East Coast with the love interest. They break up for a short period of time and the psycho finds her again. It has a happy ending and i literally cannot find it. if anyone knows it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Stripped Defenseless by Lia Slater?

Remi, what year did you read this book?

[Remi D.]

I don't really remember when I read it. I think maybe last year

[Remi D.]

also I think she was a soccer player in high school and won the championship right before she met him.

Some of your details don't match what I remember for this one but Mine to Hold by Cynthia Eden is similar and might be worth a look.

[Remi D.]

that's not it. Thank you though Aerulan!
