** Publisher Comments **
WE JUST DON’T TALK ABOUT IT.
And with 1 out of every 3 women being personally involved in, or having a family member or a close friend
who is currently involved in an abusive relationship
….
WE CAN’T AFFORD NOT TO TALK ABOUT IT!

Susan Brauer’s odyssey of abuse and triumph, JUST KEEP DANCING really hits home which is why it is showing up on numerous must read lists.
Much like a friend would talk to you over a cup of coffee, Susan describes her 20 year relationship and marriage to her childhood sweetheart, telling how that relationship turned abusive and then ultimately violent and dangerous. Finally with a powerful message Susan shows that it’s never too late to live happily ever after.
JUST KEEP DANCING is an inspiration for those caught in the cycle of abuse, and for others it is a compelling and uplifting read.


** Testimonials **

"I read JUST KEEP DANCING and loved it. It is so well written. There were many emotions I felt throughout the book - sadness, disbelief, anger, accomplishment, worry, thankfulness, awe. I'm in awe of what you were able to survive, but it also makes me sad and angry that you had to go through that. Ironically, since reading the book I've begun to appreciate the men in my life more. My father is a wonderful and good natured man that I realized has helped me be who I am. I've also thanked my husband for being such a kind man too. I realize that I'm fortunate and should let the men in my life get credit for that. Your book has helped me improve my relationships with my father and husband. Thank you."
"I also passed the book along to my old coworker. She is attending law school this fall with a goal to start her own non-profit organization helping woman get career skills. I think your book will inspire her more."

“I had the opportunity to read JUST KEEP DANCING, and I honor your courage and willingness to share your story with others in hopes that no one will have to go through what you did -- or if they do, that they too will find the strength that you did to “keep dancin'.”
        K. W.
       Corporate Alliance to End Partner Violence (www.caepv.org)

“I just finished your book. It is absolutely wonderful. It gives me hope that I, too, can make it through college. I am still struggling with my ex-husband's voice that tells me that I am stupid even though I know I am not. I see so many signs now that I should have recognized the danger of what my ex-husband was doing to me.”
“Thanks so much for the wonderful book. I know I am not alone.”
       Ms. J. T.

“I finished your awesome book over a week ago, but am just writing to you now. Any words of praise I could say would not begin to do it justice. First of all, your style is unique: brief, to the point, and powerful in every sentence and that makes the impact of the content all the stronger. And the content is riveting as it is. I knew there was going to be a happy ending and that kept me going.”
