Do Over

About the Book

Do-Over is a story about wishing for a life diff erent from what you have, a life different from what you have lived and a chance to do it all over again. It is a story about childhood abuse, a woman’s struggle to survive and overcome and the belief and determination that the abuse would not be passed onto the next generation. The account of the actual abuse to the principle character of Reb and her siblings is true but the names, dates, places and events have been fi ctionalized and/or changed to protect all parties. At the same time, this is a true account as to the process of living through child abuse and its longstanding consequences, if only one example, and told in story form. Th us, it is a mixture of truth and fiction.
