Daunted No More had me at the opening paragraph. I had to read it in a single sitting. The beautifully-structured format lends itself to a several-session read... if you think you can do that. The story's flow is seamless; the rhythm, engaging; and-beware-the pacing will alter your heartbeat. The author artfully weaves the culmination of a family's multi-generation tale into a riveting journey through the reader's emotional spectrum. You will fear, love, hate, fret, hope, and cheer... and then some. I loved this book... and hate that it needed to be written. -Mark Bracich, Screenwriter, Actor, Filmmaker, and Retired USAF Colonel Daunted No More takes readers on an emotional journey through the mind games, manipulation, and self-doubt of unhealthy relationships into a place of bravery, courage, and discovering self-love. This thought-provoking story has the power to inspire deep conversations in groups, clubs, and classrooms. It's a must-read novel demonstrating the importance of devoted support and unconditional love from friends and family. -A. Van Donk, 911 Dispatcher This tale brings home a message in a viscerally relatable fashion. A difficult subject addressed with the finesse of an expert storyteller, Daunted No More proves to be a thought-provoking, yet highly entertaining read. -Michelle Murray, COO at KMP Entertainment, Screenwriter, Novelist, Veteran's Advocate Daunted No More is a captivating, fast-moving story with truths sprinkled in that are profound and can be applied to our lives in positive ways. Great reading for high school students as well as adults. It's an important message immersed in rich authenticity and a page-turning plot. Riveting! -Marlys Johnson, Author, Teacher A page-turner I could not put down, Daunted No More is for every survivor currently walking the path looking for a new road, and, more importantly, for every woman who has said, That will never happen to me! In an emotionally raw way, S.R. Luviek has intricately woven three unique perspectives around one sadly taboo topic. The nuances, the lies, the empty promises, and delusions are all addressed in a vulnerable way that begs for light to be shed where darkness and secrecy have usually prevailed. -Kristy Bingham, English Language Arts Teacher A moving story that hooks you from the beginning, Daunted No More is engaging and well written. It paints a sobering picture that is too often ignored, brushed-aside, or explained away. May it stir up grace and action in the hearts of its readers. -Kirby Alfaro, Pastor Daunted No More is a gripping story depicting the generational impact of choices on those who follow. -Kristi Byrd, School Counselor Daunted No More exposes terrors that tragically affect millions of people from every demographic. This captivating, moving, and relevant novel sheds light on the inner thoughts and emotions of both the trapped and the survivors, yet also offers truth and hope that can help sufferers escape. Adults of every age should take time to read, ponder, and digest this story so we can better recognize the signs and help end the vicious cycle. -Jennifer Walling, School Principal
