Summary

The second of Kate Skylark's co-created true child-abuse stories.

Steve Gilbert is a charming, clever man. Lucy is his 10-year-old daughter. Lucy loves him to bits, just as all little girls love their daddies, and she is delighted to hear he has organized a special party for her. After all, little girls love parties. But Steve Gilbert is also a sociopathic, manipulative sexual predator. Brainwashed into accepting her father’s twisted view of the world, Lucy trusts him implicitly. Daddy will keep her safe; he will keep her happy. Daddy would never betray his little girl, would he? But as time goes on, Steve Gilbert’s evil manipulations escalate, and following a shocking string of events, Lucy’s innocent young life turns from simple happy childhood to an abusive nightmare. Only one person can save her now. 

Lucy Gilbert and Kate Skylark are friends and confidants. They created this book together to help raise money to help children in danger.

Warning: This book is based upon a true account of child abuse and, as such, contains passages that some listeners may find disturbing.

Shocking

I found myself shaking my head frequently throughout this book! Listening to what these sick men did to this young girl! Her own father! Worst sexual child abuse story ive heard but knowing these sick ppl exist and the mention of the videos there are clearly a lot of cases such as this! Well done for outing these sick animals. I felt the sadness and anger of both Lucy and her mum. Having been through child abuse myself and having a 10 year old daughter now too. I am happy yo share some of your pain and i hope you know you arent alone! Ive had many hard periods in my life but good ones too so i hope you are living in a good one forever now! Lots of love Lizzy xx

Harrowing

As difficult this was to listen too due to the nature of abuse she suffered, it was well written and narrated and sadly is the reality for so many children who have experienced this level of abuse.

hard to here but good

it helped me alot it is quite sickening but also puts things in to perspective not for the faint of heart but a very good story about a shocking subject kind if hard to review really I get a few mixed feelings about it hard to hear but its helped me understand my own life helped me process some difficult things I sometimes get overwhelmed with feelings of protection for the girl in the story and slight anger just a rollercoaster of emotions but all in all its good
