Book Cover & Preview Text
I was shackled and cuffed and loaded into a transport bus where I was isolated from the male inmates who were being transported from the jail or from various prisons nearby. My seat was inside a metal cage where I was locked in. That was the only time in this entire experience I was ever afraid. Even though there was a guard at the front of the bus with a big, high powered rifle, I was the only female there, and I tried not to imagine what all could go wrong. As we were leaving the city and getting onto the Interstate, I remembered all the times I had driven up and down that highway when I was a free citizen. I wondered how I was going to wrap my mind around not being able to be free for six years. I found it impossible to rest or close my eyes. I was feeling watchful and paranoid, and wondering what was next.

About the Book
Bondage and imprisonment start in the mind. However, our healing and freedom also, start in the mind. Our intention to be free and happy is set in the heart and carried out by the mind and with faith. We simply need to accept the invitation. God built us perfectly and beautifully and gave us many powerful gifts. These gifts are not visible to the naked eye. These gifts are built in. They are natural and intrinsic and it is imperative that we find them and use them. These gifts are when we take our power back from wherever the place was we left it, or whoever we gave it to; places like addictions, poor decision making or in bad relationships with other people on any level. Dauntless A Story of Crime, Punishment, and Love was written to illustrate a journey of overcoming adversity.
