Her Silence is BROKEN. Her voice is now heard. Echoing loud, vibrant and FREE. A decade's long journey will now be told. from successfully single to married with five children in one year. Chronicling homelessness, marital affairs, grief, loss, divorce, and joy. All while learning to listen to that still small voice. Crying God where are you. Learning to find him in the murkiest of waters. These are her personal reflections.

'I attacked her much like those horribly dressed women on Jerry Springer, including the shoving and yelling. Although, I believe I was far better dressed and much more dignified than the people on television. At one point, I grabbed (the trollop) so forcefully I literally threw her from her shoes. It reminded me of the Wicked Witch of the East with her ruby slippers left behind.' Reflections in a Broken Mirror explores the damage of verbal, physical, and sexual abuse. While Melanie suffered from being wounded by others, she also struggled with the side effects of prescription drugs. Her personal insight and wit are sprinkled throughout the memoir.
