Adversity'S Child: 3 Victims & 4 Female Murderers' Stories Of Redemption

Adversity's Child By: Bettye Sweet, M.S. "This book shows the author's and the other six females' resilience. The transparency of their stories, their passions and their redemption are felt in each and every chapter. This book took me on a roller coaster of emotions, but once I finished it, I better understood how precious life truly is. I fully understand now that life is too short to hold onto pain, resentment and unforgiveness." -Shelby Alvarez, screenwriter and actress "If you're looking for fuel to help you power up and overcome adversities that you're experiencing, Adversity's Child is the book for you. This self-help book shares many stories of women who have overcome traumatic experiences and have turned those tribulations into triumphant testimonies." -Robin Sweet-Ransom, author of Taboo and motivational speaker "I was amazed about how little I knew of Bettye's early life. The other six females' incredible stories are also as riveting, constructed around their real-life experiences. You will travel with them all on their amazing journey towards redemption. A must-read." -Mary Ann Brevidoro, BFF Adversity's Child tells the story of seven females-three victims and four murderers-and their journey toward redemption. All of these women's stories involve childhood traumas. Each of them begins with Dr. Nadine Burke Harris' Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) questionnaire. Bettye Sweet's story of molestation pales in comparison to that of her niece, Robin. Cheryl suffers extensive abuse and torture at the hands of her schizophrenic mother. Eight-year-old Carla watches her mother murder her twelve-year-old sister and then is raised by an incestuous father. There's Rita, who's serving a twenty-five-to-life sentence for murdering her boyfriend, and Kierra-serving the same for robbing and killing the neighborhood storekeeper. Finally, there's Danielle, an entitled girl whose jealously takes the life of her boyfriend's baby daughter. But with all of these challenges, can the power of love and forgiveness lead all seven to redemption? You will be riveted to these ladies' life-changing narratives.
