For immediate release
NJ author Jodi Pavlock participates in Liberty States Fiction Writers 14th Annual Conference Book Fair on April 5
Jekyll Can’t Hyde depicts the travails and survival of a narcissistic relationship
Robbinsville, NJ — Jodi Pavlock, a model, real estate investor, and former bus driver from Bergen County, New Jersey, presents a riveting examination of the mental anguish and abuse suffered throughout a relationship with a narcissist. Released in December 2024, Jekyll Can’t Hyde is garnering praise among readers for its gritty storytelling and Pavlock’s bravery in the face of a doomed relationship. Pavlock will participate and sign books at the Book Fair at Liberty States Fiction Writers 14th Annual Conference on Saturday, April 5 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Robbinsville. www.lsfwriters.com.
Her book is a roadmap to happiness for others suffering in abusive relationships. Pavlock shares some of her personal experiences combined with the difficulties of healing after the storm. At recent book signing, readers shared their personal experiences in toxic relationships with Pavlock, who inspired some to make a change and stand up for themselves. Pavlock’s story is a journey to help women build the strength to leave bad relationships, especially when gas-lighting and lies are the foundation. Pavlock’s journal inspired her to write her own happy ending.
“It’s been wonderful meeting the people who read my book. Some of them have escaped and survived a toxic relationship with a narcissist. Some have been stuck in a bad place, so I’ve shared my story with them,” Pavlock said, “My goal is to tell all women to save themselves and get out. They are stronger than they think, and they can accomplish anything they set their minds to. There is a light at the end of the tunnel no matter how dark it seems now.”
Pavlock’s book is loosely based on her romantic relationships over the years and earlier this year, she decided it was time to help other women. She based Jekyll Can’t Hyde on her journal entries. She was determined to release the book as soon as possible, so Pavlock decided to self-publish the book, which also gave her more creative control.
“I have discovered an epidemic of narcissistic relationships, and I want to bring clarity and hope to those in that particular situation,” Pavlock said. “Unless you are a survivor of narcissistic abuse, you have no idea what it means to fight daily battles in your head with a person you no longer have contact with. Verbal, emotional and physical abuse has a residual effect on a survivor. You just don’t get over it.”
Pavlock’s book delves into topics like trauma bonds, gaslighting, self-blame, triggers, and many important issues involving relationships. Readers of early drafts of the book can empathize with Pavlock’s autobiography and many have contacted her on social media with their similar stories.
Pavlock will be touring bookstores in the upcoming months in New Jersey, Florida, Pennsylvania and Nevada, and said, “I am excited to meet my readers in person.”
Pavlock’s debut Jekyll Can’t Hyde is available at bookstores and online. Click here for more information and here for a video promo reel featuring the author and actors.
Jodi Pavlock will be participating in the Book Fair at the Liberty States Fiction Writers 14th Annual Conference from 4 to 6 p.m. on Saturday, April 5, at the Hilton Garden Inn, 800 Route 130, Robbinsville, NJ, 08690. Admission is free to the book fair, although registration is required to participate in the conference. www.lsfwriters.com
