Summary

Living in a two parent home would seem ideal, but for this little girl. Cherish Flowers is a six-year-old child prostitute trafficked by her father, and her mother knew about it. Although severely sexually and mentally abused, she finds a way to deal with her life as it is. She takes solace in her ability to dance. Cherish is in love with the dancing, but can she survive the daily travails of her life? Of her mind with no formal training other than her passion for dancing, Cherish has finally gotten her big break, but it might cost her everything. Unable, to put the nightmares of her past and the man that abused her out, she soon finds herself spiraling under those bright lights. Will this flower bloom? Or will she wilt?

DEDICATION

This book series is dedicated to all the children who had to endure in silence sexual abuse traumas. You were with me every day of writing this series and provided a constant reminder that I live a privileged life, but everyone doesn’t, and your stories must be told. I hope that I did you proud.

Tatouie: There wasn’t anything I didn’t like except maybe more of a finality to the European Charter that was up to no good. I feel like they wouldn’t have left so quietly. Otherwise loved the story, great rhythm can’t wait to read more books.
