the seduction of an older man she trusted. Betrayed
by her father’s love of rum and coke, she had no

the least of her worries. Hell had to be better than
the life she was living, however…
Her Nightmare is only beginning…
This is the story about what happens when
parents are too busy making love to liquor
bottles instead of raising their children…
