Marilyn Van Derbur shares her courageous search for healing from incest. In this long-awaited book, Marilyn, a former Miss America, tells the story of how she was sexually violated by her father from age five to age 18. She was 53 years old before she was able to speak the words in public: "I am an incest survivor." Van Derbur describes in detail what specific "work" she did on her successful journey from victim to survivor. Using her story as the scaffolding, she shares knowledge and insights she has gained after talking personally with adult survivors in the 225 cities in which she has spoken. Van Derbur also gives the hope that a richly satisfying and long lasting marriage is possible if healing is passionatelyl pursued.
