This is not a story of traditional abuse and sexual assault often seen on the evening news or in your social media feed. Sadly, this story is one even more common. Within the pages of this book, you will witness a survivor's journey from being a victim to a victor. A nave young girl with strong religious convictions who fights to maintain her "perfect" outer appearance grows into a young woman struggling mentally, believing that she has become damaged goods. As an adult woman, she finds herself grasping for emotional stability and self-worth while searching for love in all the wrong places. Victoria shares her raw and emotional story and the "Five V's" that led her from the depths of despair to a victorious life.
