Publisher's summary

Sexual trauma can dim or even extinguish the spark of our personalities—but deep within us, our souls remain as bright and beautiful as the day God gave them to us.

Little Sweetheart, the true account of a 12-year-old girl trapped in a sexual relationship with an older dance teacher, is much more than a memoir. With vulnerability and honesty, Amber Gregory integrates both spiritual inspiration and careful research with her autobiographical story. As she shares her healing journey—a journey she took with her divine soul mate at her side—she empowers us to learn along with her. She offers us not only information about the dangerous world we live in but also new hope for resiliency and spiritual growth.

Critic reviews

"The author has bravely described the confusion, trauma, and betrayal she experienced. Readers with similar experiences will gain understanding, comfort, and validation reading this accessibly written book." (Constance A. Platt, psychologist and author of Comforting the Confused)

"The author offers a courageous, honest, and profound account of her experience with groomed rape. She weaves in the theme of God as her constant soul mate affirming that, despite life's darkness, there is also meaning and glory. I recommend this book to both survivors and therapists to assist the journey of healing and understanding. Perhaps most important, the book promotes the release of an inappropriate sense of guilt and responsibility in the survivor/victim." (Jodi Lowry, MSW, LCSW~R, ACSW)

Well Told

This is an important story that needs to be listened to. It gives many insights into human behavior and would be helpful for anyone who has suffered abuse, but is enlightening for anyone interested in the human condition. Though there is some difficult subject matter, it is well told and hopeful.

Eye-opening- Necessary topic

This book is very well written, this is a difficult topic, and very uncomfortable, but it is necessary to be informed of what can go on when nobody’s paying attention. Miss Gregory tells of her experience through the abuse, and also gives hope for a life after. Take time to hear the heart of the story being told,

Hard Topic…great story telling!!!

A sad topic that is far to commonly heard in todays world, yet Ms. Gregory manages an easy conversational style that has one chapter flowing into the next. A book of hope and help, both for people who may share this experience and those wishing to prevent such abuse to themselves or any “ little sweethearts” in their own lives. I highly recommend this book.
