Fourteen and Trapped!

Fourteen and Trapped!

By: Josephine Anita Ware

Fourteen and Trapped! is the shocking true story about a teenager who, after being assaulted and becoming pregnant at 14, is married off to her aggressor and forced to suffer years of physical and mental abuse. However, throughout the fear and the pain, whenever the world seemed darkest, she found the Grace of God and His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, and protection, guidance, and purpose in listening to that still-small voice, the gift of the Holy Spirit.
