A small Island in the Caribbean, where the soil is rich in minerals, and known as the land of spice, Dr. Constance Telesfford was born on that soil, the Island of Grenada. The first of seven children, she was the recipient of harsh punishment from her mother, and the victim of attempted rape twice as a child. She migrated to Aruba with her siblings to join her parents where she completed most of her academic education. The spoken language was Dutch, a new experience but learning a new language was a good thing. Dr. Telesfford received her nursing education and post graduate midwifery in London, England where she met and married Albert Prescott after graduation. Having worked as a practicing midwife after graduation, Dr. Telesfford migrated to America with her husband and their two daughters, at the invitation of her sister, to work in medicine.

At 22, Leslie Morgan Steiner seemed to have it all: a Harvard diploma, a glamorous job at Seventeen magazine, a downtown New York City apartment. Plus a handsome, funny, street-smart boyfriend who adored her. But behind her façade of success, this golden girl hid a dark secret. She'd made a mistake shared by millions: she fell in love with the wrong person. At first Leslie and Conor seemed as perfect together as their fairy-tale wedding. Then came the fights she tried to ignore: he pushed her down the stairs of the house they bought together, poured coffee grinds over her hair as she dressed for a critical job interview, choked her during an argument, and threatened her with a gun. Several times, he came close to making good on his threat to kill her. With each attack, Leslie lost another piece of herself. Gripping and utterly compelling, Crazy Love takes you inside the violent, devastating world of abusive love. Conor said he'd been abused since he was a young boy, and love and rage danced intimately together in his psyche. Why didn't Leslie leave? She stayed because she loved him. Find out for yourself if she had fallen truly in love – or into a psychological trap. Crazy Love will draw you in -- and never let go.
