Book excerpt: This book, the Predator Within, reflects many people who have experienced the similar abuse. Growing up in todays society is a real challenge for any child as well as an adult. My life is based on my own personal struggles within. The obstacle sometimes is not what you try to avoid but what you try to forget. We all have something that we are ashamed of or want to forget; but our minds are a light to our soul and a hard drive of information that no matter how hard we try to delete the information, the shame or fear is still in memory. This book is a light of my soul and a memory of my hard drive to move forward. This is about my lifes journey to continue to pursue my destiny, even when the odds are tacked against you. My life is only a testimony to all not to give up on their dreams even if life takes an ugly turn; never give up on your destiny to be all that God wants you to be. I have learned to be an over comer instead of the victim. For every book purchase a part of it proceeds will be donated to develop awareness and encourage others who have lost their way.
