Böcker av Yolanda Lopez

This memoir is a story of betrayal, and self-discovery. It takes us back to environments where men abused their power over female employees. With wit and courage, and yet with no power of her own, the author manages to weave her way through sticky situations somehow surviving dirty mouth bosses, to those sleeping in her bed and to those favoring S & M bars. She does it with grace, quitting jobs as they became too difficult, and by reaching out to psychics for answers when she feels lost.Along the way, she meets different lovers, has a daughter, and attends law school. But it is not until she begins writing her memoir revealing her long-term love story that she finally discovers a hidden truth about herself-one that she has kept secret from herself. This "ah ha" truth stemming from her childhood helps her understand why it was now time to release that frightened nine-year-old girl from her sacred vow.

Author Yolanda Lopez's story of her mother's life and her own childhood growing up in Los Angeles with five siblings is much more than a remembrance-it is a testament to the challenges of single motherhood and of the choices women must sometimes make in order to insure their survival. Filled with heartbreak, secrets, and betrayals, her mother's struggles are an inspiration to anyone seeking to transcend their life circumstances and wishing to find their authentic voice.
