In this inspirational memoir, we meet a young woman forced to grow up too quickly when she's married off at sixteen. Carlen shares her life story in the hopes that others will be motivated to persevere in the face of overwhelming odds. She attacks her obstacles head on, as she fights an internal war against her narcissistic mother. Will Carlen continue to maintain her sanity against all odds?
