"This is John’s best book yet, and I have loved them all đź’•
How John portrays a women’s perspective on such heartbreaking truths is unbelievable.
Absolutely couldn’t put this book down. John has a special way of making you believe better is out there for anybody."

PURPLE DOVE By J A Crawshaw
Small Town, Coastal Romance, Forbidden Love, Narcissitic Control, Flight To Freedom
From her beautiful clifftop house overlooking the dramatic Yorkshire coast, Heather's life couldn't be more blissful.
Married to a respected High Court Judge, she escaped her dysfunctional parents and found the security and comfort she never thought possible. But beneath the idyllic facade lies a suffocating web of control and emotional oppression.
Finding solace within her beloved garden, Heather buries herself among her plants and vegetables, hiding from the wounds of a troubled childhood, the guilt and shame that she carries and her worthiness as a wife, and a woman.
From secret coves to harbour life, the coastal storms mirror the tempest brewing in Heather's heart. Will she find the fortitude to set sail toward her true destiny, or will fear anchor her to a life that is slowly drowning her soul? This is a story of forbidden attraction, hard-won courage and the liberating power of true love.
