How do older men control young women?

A young teenager, an older male predator, and a house full of abused women under the man’s control.


This blog is not a repeat of the allegations against R&B singer R. Kelly. The allegations of decades of physical, sexual and mental torture of women who joined his “family” are now well documented by a six-part special that appeared on cable television.

This is my story

When I was seventeen, I was seduced and ran away from home with a much older man. He was a pimp. When we arrived at our destination, I found there were three other women living in the house that I had to share him with. The allegations against R. Kelly remind me of a very difficult and painful time in my life.

A Powerful True Crime Memoir

“Never A $7 Wh*re” is the true crime memoir of how I was manipulated into willingly allowing myself to be deceived. When I was seventeen, I wanted to be a model. I was a single mother with no skills, working as a medical assistant for five hundred dollars a month. I desperately wanted more out of life. I believed I had a dead-end job with a dead-end life.

“Never A $7 Wh*re”, a 5-star Readers Favorite, details the process Prince, my boyfriend, used to convince me to move away to pursue my dreams. It tells the story from the moment we meet until I escape.
