Synopsis

Michele Anstead’s inspiring true story is a stunning account of ultimate triumph over the most impossible of odds. From an early age, her life was marred by abuse, deprivation, abandonment, addiction, incarceration, tragedy and loss.

Michele's downward spiral began at the age of three, when she witnessed her mother and aunt being beaten by her uncle, followed by her mother slashing open her uncle’s head with a butcher knife. This incident set a horrific chain of events in motion exposing her to sexual abuse while in foster care, followed by a life on the streets filled with violence, drug abuse, poverty, and some of the worst experiences human nature has to offer.

You will be mesmerized by Michele’s perseverance through these devastating events and cheer as she battles back from the brink of death to a life of promise, purpose and ultimate success. From the opening paragraph, you will not be able to put this book down.

FEAR IS NOT AN OPTION will appeal to a wide range of readers, especially fans of memoirs about surviving abuse, such as Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes, Mary Karr’s The Liars’ Club, and A Child Called “It,” by Dave Pelzer. More broadly, FEAR IS NOT AN OPTION will appeal to readers who appreciate books in the categories of women’s interests and inspirational, and also to readers who have experienced child abuse and/or domestic violence first-hand.
