Through a beautiful and happy-go-lucky childhood, to a confusing adolescence, abusive marriage, and finally freedom, Charlene Jeffs takes readers on a wandering journey through the joys and heartaches of her life within the FLDS Church.
Charlene was raised in the FLDS church by a loving mother and father, brothers, and sisters. Her childhood seemed nearly "normal" as she interacted with other kids her age, went to school, and learned how to complete important chores.
Once she became a teenager, Charlene saw the winds begin to change in her life. Soon enough, she was beckoned with her father and mother to "Uncle Roy's" office, where she was informed she'd been picked to be Lyle Jeffs wife because she's a "good, morally clean girl."
Initial excitement turned sour after several years, and Charlene's marriage deteriorated by the day as Warren Jeffs changed the group. Desperate for a way out, Charlene sacrifices much of her life to regain her freedom from an organization she once loved.
In Charlene's heartfelt and comprehensive memoir, readers will travel through stages of her life, walking her steps and experiencing what she lived through within the FLDS. Ultimately winning her freedom and the freedom of her beloved children, Charlene's story is a testament to the strength of abuse survivors and meant to help outsiders understand the reality in which she lived.
Survivors of abuse, ex-fundamentalists, and readers interested in FLDS memoirs will enjoy Tell Your Heart To Beat Again's revealing and unfeigned narrative.
