Alexis Robinson is a young woman with an amazing mind, but a life of hardships has tainted her soul. 
At the age of fourteen she’s betrayed by her mother, sexually abused by her mother’s boyfriend, and taken advantage of by a trusted member of her school.
The abuse she endured as a youth leads Alexis down a destructive path as an adult. Prostitution, beatings, rape and other forms of abuse nearly cause her demise. But when Alexis rediscovers a love she had long forgotten, she becomes driven to get her life back on track…but for every step she takes forward, something seems to always pull her back two.

TOURZ DE CODEX - Virtual book Tours, Mass Reviews...we are signing for the end of April and the May slot [FOR SOMETHING YOUNG ADULT/SCI-FI/HISTORICAL FICTION] - http://tourzdecodex.blogspot.in/2011/11/why-virtual-book-tours.html

The Virtual Book Tour empowers authors to connect their books with interested readers through the medium of weblogs and personal websites.

In a nutshell, a Virtual Book Tour consists of an author "stopping" at a given number of websites in a given about of time, the same as they would do at bookstores during a real world tour. At these stops, the author may be interviewed, may take over the site for a day and blog themselves, may answer questions from readers, get their book reviewed or do all four.

So with an affordable amount, we at Tourz de Codex strive to offer the best services to our host and clients alike.

My new and true autobiography entitled "Born in Betrayal" is now available @ http://www.createspace.com/3694258 I believe that it will literally change the lives of all who read it. I am a survivor, and my message is one of faith, strength, and hope. We all have a story to tell, but the beauty of life is sharing experiences and possibly encouraging someone else in their journey. God Bless you all. Yours, The Germantown Angel. I am also looking for a movie deal. My dream is for the world to be able to hear my tale, and experience the joys of freedom, trust, and love.
