5.0 out of 5 stars dark and compelling,but beautiful, 2 Mar 2004
By Ap Nj Dorrall "nicky0512" (plymouth,devon) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
this is a very dark and compelling book.it centre's around paedaphilia,child prostitution and basically learning to live again. it tells a story of a women who runs off with her child looking for a better life and what she finds is sex and drugs.her daughter is used to satisfy the needs of others whilst her mother dies of drugs.all through this her father has been looking for her and after many years eventually finds her.Now a women in her own right she finds it difficult to adapt to a normal life and struggles with her feelings for a friend of her father.they all set about trying to bring to justice those who inflicted this cruelty upon her and others who suffered at the hands of these men.Ms Sala deals with this subject beautifully,it has been carefully written with the victim in the for-front of your mind and while the story line is one which would frankly scare the living daylights out of all parents, it manages to bring love and hope to a very touching story.It takes a very diligant author to touch this topic and make somthing dark into a rather wonderful love story.
This is a book which made me cry not only for what she and others have suffered but because there is very real love in this story.Be prepared for a frightening journey in this dark story but do read it.Well done to Sharon Sala.

1.0 out of 5 stars Would not even give 1 star - but it's a required field!, 4 April 2004
By LeoKA (Cardiff, South Glamorgan.) - See all my reviews
I generally choose books that have a good review. Unfortunately this book does not deserve it. Whilst the story line has an emotive subject, I found the lead characters extremely annoying. Even though the female had suffered a terrible experience during her formative years, I felt no sympathy for her as an adult. I found her to be very selfish - me, me me. The book is from her perspective as an adult with a lot of flash backs to keep the reader interested (as nothing else could). I found the 'words' of the female character to be childish and those around her encouraged her behaviour. Her 'saviour' would not be my ideal male as he seemed to pander to her and whilst they say real men cry, I wished he'd give it a rest. I also found it hard to believe that with the childhood the female character had that she'd recovered so quickly. I felt as if she simply switched from one caregiver to another and had not dealt with her experiences as a child and the tragedy that her first 'caregiver' experiences, as the author had not given much time in the book to this. The depth of feeling a topic such as this should cause, whilst saddening, was rushed. I have read one other book by this author and was annoyed by the waste of money and should have used my common sense and not bought this one. Unfortunately I did and having read this book, I shall certainly not buy another, regardless of the rating given. If the the author had used the book to show the growth of the female character from this terrible tragedy and the impact her new found strength and determination has on those around her, it may have been money well spent - but some how I doubt it.
