About this ebook
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.
