Author Allesley Officer has had just one wish her entire life-to be
loved. Even though she has always known the Creator of the universe
cared for her, she never truly understood the depth of His love
until her life became a suicidal travesty. Officer begins her
memoir by candidly detailing her life as a young girl growing up in
the inner-city of Kingston, Jamaica. Born to a twenty-one-year-old
unwed mother of two other children, Officer's journey was often
difficult as she was shuttled back and forth between her mother and
father's homes. Repeatedly molested by first a stepsister and then
a family friend, Officer relays how she finally told her father-and
was shocked when he did nothing. As she shares the details of her
lifelong battle with suicidal thoughts and images fueled by years
of sexual abuse, low self-esteem, and self-loathing, she also
provides hope to others by illustrating how she was eventually able
to rise above life's challenges and learn to love herself once
again. "Telling My Story: The Journey of a Ghetto Girl" shares one
woman's poignant journey of survival that will remind women
everywhere to never forget their inner beauty, no matter how
difficult life becomes.
