About this audiobook
In How to Spot a Dangerous Man Before You Get Involved Sandra L. Brown, MA, describes eight types of dangerous men, their specific traits, and characteristics. She explores victim's stories that tell how they came in contact with each type of Dangerous Man and their outcome. Brown then presents how to develop a defense strategy-how to spot, avoid, or rid themselves of this type of dangerous man.
Brown explains women's innate "red flag" systems-how they work to signal impending danger, and why many women learn to ignore them. With red flags in hand, Brown then guides the listeners through their own personal experiences to develop a personalized "Do Not Date" list. With these tools, Brown shows women how they can spot and avoid patterns of engagement with dangerous men.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Really good information!! Great advice for women. Definitely should read.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great for all women.... I would recommend this book to any woman that has had bad dating habits or have been in an unhealthy relationship. I was freaked out by noticing that two of my exes were in this book. They really hurt me physically, sexually, mentally, and emotionally; which lead me to seek help. This book provided me the knowledge of what I need to do to change those behaviors. I've been seeking counseling, reading self help books, and using faith to help me heal from my past trauma. I just so happen to have come across this book, which was an eye opener. It definitely help me to know I'm on the right healing journey to changing my life. I plan to be in counseling for the rest of my life, which I've accepted. I hope other women take the time to work through their past mistakes to better understand the relational chooses they make.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It’s very informational. It helps me examine my past relationships and analyse the patterns in case the same mistakes happen again in the future
