Summary
In 2016, against all odds, Nicola Hanney survived a terminal cancer diagnosis and decided to live life to the full. When she matched with Garda Paul Moody on a dating app, she thought her dreams had come true, but never could have imagined she would be plunged into another nightmare: a four-year campaign of violence and coercive control at his hands.
Despite being told she would never conceive due to the toll cancer had taken on her body, Nicola beat the odds a second time and became pregnant to Moody. Trapped in an unrelenting cycle of abuse, the baby she had always wished for gave Nicola newfound hope for the future. Then, midway through her pregnancy, she found a lump in her breast. The cancer was back.
In Stronger, Nicola charts her extraordinary journey through unimaginable abuse and aggressive, recurring illness. Revealing the insidious nature of coercive control, she recounts how Moody manipulated her and threatened her loved ones to keep her compliant.
Throughout it all, Nicola's resilience never wavered. She proved herself stronger than the disease that threatened to take her life. Stronger than the man who tried to crush her spirit. Stronger than the bad hand she was dealt.
This is her story.

Such a brave strong woman
I'm from the same city as Nicola although I live in the UK now. My heart broke listening to her story and as a Therapist I know only too well that this happens to many women all over the world.
Paul Moody has NPD for which there is no cure and I hope he doesn't get to abuse another woman like that.
