Summary

In the second novel of the 'Choosing to remember' series, Jerome Clarkson takes a swan dive into his past and the trauma he's carried for far too long. Jerome grew up in a very toxic and unloving environment, unable to escape the torture. His mother had him at just 13 and went on to have seven more children, that she took her frustrations out on constantly. Jerome was berated as child for being different and his mother often abused him because she believed that he was gay. From the moment his mother first beat him, Jerome felt the need to please his mother and prove her suspicions to be wrong. So at 19 he married his wife, hoping to change his mother's mind and prevent further harassment from everybody he encountered. For over 20 years, Jerome hid his sexuality and tried to live the traditional lifestyle. Not without scandals, lies, heartbreak and loss along the way. In Jerome's book of reflection, you'll hear all about the struggles of living to please others and how bad pretending to be someone else can affect you.
