Little Sweetheart, the true account of a twelve-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.

"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."
