This paperback and ebook tells the story of a woman raised in affluent suburban Detroit, with strict Methodist, Midwestern values as the bulwark of her emotional and physical life. That is, until she’s 17 and begins making choices against her better judgment, reveling in the thrill of risk-taking. In the face of manipulative family deception, a girl and then a woman, trying and failing to follow rules, explores her own defiant nature, raw sexuality, and development of fierce feminist values.This book took years to write. Extensively researched, it makes a cogent argument that men and women have different communication styles.

In this gender confused society we live in, this book stays true to creation order.
