Just about every day in the news, we hear about someone being financially taken advantage of. What is not talked about, however, is the all-encompassing emotional turmoil that leads to being able to be manipulated, falling for such deception, and what happens after. My debut book, my memoir, Blast Radius: Shrapnel, shards and Scars from the lies I lived, draws you into that world with brutal honesty, passion, and the sense of humor of a close friend.
Blast Radius gives you a front-row seat to see how a life built on deception brought profound consequences engulfing not only me but also my children, my family, my friends, and so many more. It is the story of how trying to be the perfect wife, daughter, and friend makes you ignore your internal turmoil and blinds you to the deception, abuse, and fraud surrounding you. It is a story about persevering and putting the pieces of your life back together when life throws you curveballs - even your own family is trying to stop you.
I wrote it not for me, although it was cathartic. I wrote it for the person who doubts every decision they make, for the person who doubts themselves but trusts everyone else, and for the person who strives for perfectionism but never feels good enough. I wrote it to hopefully make a difference in someone else's life, hoping that no one else ever has to go through what my friends, family, and I went through.
I would like you to keep the following text in mind: This is my raw and unfiltered story. It will give you a glimpse into a part of my life that, until recently, I had kept hidden from everyone except for a select few who were close to me or legally required to know.
