Bright and ambitious, she strives to give her parents the life they deserve, even if it takes her far from them.

Yet it can also be a vital political tool; a communication style that strengthens relationships and can even act a life-saving measure.Tracing gossip's roots from old wives' tales and the witch trials to reality TV, whisper networks and defamation lawsuits, Beyond Beliefasks, have we lost the ability to listen; to hear, and to believe women who speak up and speak out?A joyous reclamation of women's words, this book is for anyone who's ever uttered the words, 'You won't believe this...'

Love on Ice

Studies indicate that 1 in 4 girls face sexual abuse before turning 18, with most incidents happening between ages 8 and 13, increasing around puberty. The predators' focus on age thirteen is deliberate it marks both a legal boundary in many cultural contexts and a psychological obsession with newly developing girls. The girls' sense of powerlessness is significant (reporting often causes family upheaval, financial hardship, disbelief, and accusations against the girl), but in this story, strength emerges from her growing solidarity with other girls. The story begins with survival and tough times. It then shifts to Angelina's need to fight back and she does.
