In her book, The Beautiful, Shanna opens up about her dark abusive childhood, her years of being sexually abused by her stepfather, trying to cope with being placed in foster care as a teenager, and battling depression and suicidal thoughts into her twenties.

Overwhelmed by hopelessness, Shanna set out on a path of self-destruction for years, looking for acceptance and belonging from anyone and anything... until she met Love!
