Behind Silent Smiles

Behind Silent Smiles spreads awareness on the topics of domestic violence and trauma, and is effective at communicating these complex issues for an average person. One important strength of the book itself is that it has a very specific audience: women who are mature enough to handle the heavy content.  This allows the marketing to more easily narrow its focus.  Another strength is that Behind Silent Smiles is based on the true story of a real woman.  This, by extension, gives a lot of weight and credibility to the narrative.  The story of a real woman in conjunction with the novel lends itself to more successful speaking engagements.
