Publisher's Synopsis
They thought survival was the end of the story.
But healing-real healing-is where the battle truly begins.
The Exploited is a raw and redemptive follow-up to Refiner's Reach, diving deeper into the aftermath of abuse, betrayal, and trauma. It's not a highlight reel. It's the sacred in-between-the tension of trusting again, setting boundaries that feel like betrayal, forgiving without reconciling, and choosing wholeness when brokenness once felt like home.
Written for survivors who are tired of surface-level answers and church clichés, this book dares to ask: What does healing actually look like now?
With poetic honesty and faith-driven truth, Harmony Hillyard guides readers through the messy, holy work of rebuilding identity, reclaiming voice, and restoring purpose. Whether you're in the first steps of healing or still bleeding beneath the surface, this book is a lantern on the path-a reminder that healing is not a destination.
It's a daily decision.
It's a sacred rebellion.
And you're not walking it alone.
