Old Enough To Know Better: One Woman's Journey to Freedom - Paperback

by Alfreda S. Jackson (Author)

Childhood sexual abuse, teenage pregnancy, and her four-month-old child dying from health complications are just some of the things Belinda Williams, a 46-year-old police officer, experienced before graduating from high school.

Twenty-eight years, four children, and two careers later, Belinda is lost inside a world of overachievement and trying to please everyone else in her life but herself. She is also married to a truck-driver who is twenty years her senior, aloof, and set in his ways.

Old Enough to Know Better is a story of pure survival. Not realizing the full effect the incidents that happened in her childhood had in the shaping of the person she has become, Belinda soon discovers that the keys to her freedom lie in the reconciliation and restoration of the past.

On her journey, Belinda faces the ugly truths of the past, uncovers hidden family secrets, and discovers who she really is. Then she finds the love and healing she needs to step into her future.
