Before everything fell apart, the signs were already there.
This is the beginning-the origin story of a girl who looked like she had it all but was crumbling inside. Jen was raised with love, spoiled by grandparents, and surrounded by people who cared. But that didn't stop the storm from coming. From being left behind by her own mother, to getting pulled into grown-up chaos while still a child, Jen's life spiraled fast-cigarettes at 9, sex and trauma by 12, mental hospitals and CPS by 13.
Before the real tragedy struck, the tragic situations were already piling up.
This raw, unfiltered memoir is told straight from the heart, for the kids who had to grow up too fast, for the moms trying to explain their pain, and for anyone who's ever been misunderstood, mislabeled, or just plain silenced.
This isn't a pretty story. It's not sugar-coated. It's pain, love, chaos, and survival - the kind of story you read with your jaw dropped and your heart hurting. But it's real. And for anyone who's ever been through some shit and felt like nobody heard their side... this one's for you.
