The Sex Trafficker's Wife

A Story of Truth, Faith, and Trust in Self

By: A. Quick

Narrated by: Amanda Quick

Length: 4 hrs and 53 mins

Publisher's summary

She was a loving housewife. He was a hard-working husband. Together they shared three precious boys. Their marriage wasn’t perfect, but there was love between them, and it worked…right until that fateful day when it all fell apart.

This is the true story of Amanda who, through no fault of her own, found herself caught up by the darkest most insidious corners of the criminal world of sex trafficking minors. Her husband, the man she loved and the father of her children, was a criminal. And when it all came down, she was left holding the pieces.

This book is written for the women left in the shadows and the aftermath. For the spouses and partners who lose everything in an instant, but still have to keep going, navigating through complex legal systems, coming to terms with the betrayal, and somehow “holding it all together for the kids.” The ones nobody talks about, except in hushed whispers.

With a remarkably candid tone, and a clear explanation of events and facts, Quick pulls back the curtain on what happens to those left behind once the perpetrator is caught.

Much more than a memoir, this book is also a beacon of light and hope for others in the same situation.

As Amanda states, “My message to the world is really quite simple. The only person who can change your life is you. Every single person has the power to choose differently.”

Are you ready?

It is time to shake off the shackles of the past that were put on you by another. It is time to step into your own power. It is time to trust yourself. It is time to begin to heal.

Couldn't stop listening!

This had me sucked in quick. I can't believe what she went through. Such a good listen! Highly recommend

The raw honesty and vulnerability!

I listened to this book in two days. I had visceral reactions of anger for what she was going through. Amanda is honest, is able to self reflect and make sense of it all. It was riveting.

Hit me in the feels

There is only a handful of differences between our stories ; you have three kids , I have one . He was a sex offender, mine just tried to kill me. My kids dad should be a sex offender but somehow just keeps getting away with it. And I’m not a bad way. It made me feel SO good knowing someone went through almost the SAME thing as me. And in the beginning of the whole situation, I would say you had battered woman syndrome because that’s what I had. But I definitely shed tears in the very beginning when you talked about us not being alone. Thank you so much for sharing your story.

moving

even though I had the concept of the story, this was well written and shared details of the personal struggles and legal struggles we don't always get to hear about or witness. as women we are conditioned to put our family first. and when we do in the face of monsters, its hard to deprpgram and look for what our new normal will be.

when you add in the spiritual aspect, the author stole my heart and now I want her to come talk at one of my schools retreats on how finding spirituality put all the pieces together.

Phenomenal book

I enjoyed every chapter of this book. Thank you for sharing your story. I think anybody can relate to this book in one way or another. The author was very candid with her life, and I heard many great takeaways. I hope the author writes many more books.

Finished listening within a day

Hello, i loved this book. If you have dealt or currently dealing with an abusive ex (and share kids) this book will be a fast read or listen. I found so many parallels with her story to my own life. Especially the ski lessons. My sons father will not allow our son to be in sports because it will take from “his” time with our son. When i share this common everyday example with normies… they are horrified and do not understand. This book made me feel understood in a level i have never felt before. Thank you for writing and publishing this book!

P.s. there are issues with chapter 9. A whole chunk is missing and a lot of repeated sentences. A lot of glitches around ch 9 and 10 for some reason.
P.s.s. There is quite a bit of foul language all throughout the book.

Inspiration

Thanks for sharing your story and your mission to help others. Your truly an inspiration for your boys and the world.

Wowwww LOVEDDDDD AMAZING

People struggling with separation, divorce and custody battle should definitely read this. Loved the narrator who actually is the author. Her story was amazing, helpful and inspiring. I will always remember her closing credits, we have the power to make change.

Great story and performance

Thank you for sharing your story and for your advocacy and work for families like yours. This book is read by the author and is very well written. I listened to it all in one day. The previous mention of editing needed, I understand has been fixed and if you’re reading this review, you can disregard the other one.

Quick listen!

Great story and I finished in about a day and a half. I highly recommend it!
