Charge of an Angel - Review by Martha A. Cheves, Author of: Stir, Laugh, Repeat; Think With Your Taste Buds; and A Book and A Dish
"I will never know who I would
have been if this hadn't happened to me. That is so hard for me to live
with. I don't know the real person I was, and I never will. How can
I live with something like that? I feel robbed - cheated. First, my
mother and my brother are taken from me. I found out that my father is
not my father, and then I find out my virginity, youth, and innocence was
stolen right in front of my face. Why me?"
Her
name is Leona Marie Tillard and her life has been turned inside out. One
night she, her mother, father and two brothers went to bed as a family.
When she woke her mother was gone. Sometime later her brother went away
and Daddy will tell her nothing about where they are or why she can't see
them. Daddy was lost without her mother and needed someone to 'comfort'
him. With Leona being the only female in the house, she stepped into that
position. Then comes her Daddy's marriage to another woman who has three
children of her own and her family is complete again. So she thought.
When
I ask Author Linda Wattley if this book was fact or fiction she assured me it
is both. After talking to her, we both confirmed we knew young girls who
were put into a position of being sexually abused by parents, other relatives,
and adults that were in their lives. The same adults that were supposed
to take care of them and lead them in the right direction chose instead to
impose their own sick needs on these innocent children. And in some
instances they even included boys in their desires.
Are
the children to be blamed for not telling? No way. The threats they
receive if they tell is too fearful. They are brainwashed to believe that
what they are doing isn't wrong. Supposedly, it's all done as an act of
love, a way of showing love, and proving they are loved. If they are
found out they are treated by others as being sick as well and that they should
have known better, known it was wrong, refused what was being done to
them. How can you know something is wrong if someone who is supposed to
take care of you and teach you right from wrong is committing the crime against
you? You simply can't.
Charge
of an Angel is book one of three. It takes you through the abuse that
Leona endures, her feelings, and her ways of escaping from realty. It
will make you hurt for her and those like her. It will make you want to
really hurt the person doing this to her. And it will have you waiting to
see how life treats her as she gets out of her abusive life and goes on as a
young adult. I know I'm patiently waiting on book 2.
