Short description

Both compelling and original in its delivery, this dark memoir provides a heart-wrenching journey into the heart and mind of an abused child who is coming of age. This story is beautifully wrapped inside an irresistible romantic twist; as it speaks out about child abuse, teen sexuality, substance abuse, self mutilation, suicidal thoughts, as well as the proverbial sex, drugs and Rock and Roll.

Extended description

Ring around the rosy, pockets full of posies, ashes…ashes…we all fall down.

For ten-year old Anna Stone, a childhood complete with nursery rhymes and bedtime stories is nothing more than a heartless work of fiction.

For ten-year old Anna Stone, a childhood complete with nursery rhymes and bedtime stories is nothing more than a heartless work of fiction.

Plunged helplessly into the sinister, devastating world of her mother’s mental illness; Anna must grow and mature in a home where pain and fear are her only friends…

That is…until she meets fifteen year old Triston Roth; the one and only person in the world who would love her enough to help her see past her fear; giving her the courage and strength needed to defy her family.

Happy ending right? Not a chance.

The moment Anna finally finds the courage to reach out for help, she gets caught up in the wake of deception and destruction created by the very same people within the legal justice system who were supposed to be helping her.

For Anna…life is a war from which she cannot escape. Her only hope relies on her ability to give up everything and everyone she loves to become a living sacrifice in order to protect the young man whose only crimes were his love for her.

This dark, controversial version of Romeo and Juliet is based on actual events, depicting the severity and cruelty of the phrase “Star crossed lovers” while beautifully encapsulating the love, romance, hope and determination felt as Anna and Triston battle it out for their right to be free from abuse…for their right to be together.

Caution:

This novel deals with violence, child abuse, childhood sexual abuse, teen sexuality, drug and alcohol abuse, self mutilation and suicide.

Review by: John Huff on Oct. 23, 2011 : (no rating)
This was a great book. An incredibly sad and touching story of how hard life can be but yet one light of hope, love and a dream can make such a difference in someones life.

You need to read this book, recommend this book to others so we quit pretending that this does not happen in our world, the young and innocent children need our help, don't look the other way, reach out to those you have a feeling might need it.
