About the Book
At age eight, Emily Bennett discovers that her mother hates her. Thirty years later, she still wonders what she did to cause such loathing and begins a search for the journals that could reveal the truth. Along the way, Emily learns: A lie told her husband can severely strain her marriage. It takes more than talk to handle her rebellious fifteen year old daughter intent on having her first sexual experience. How to trust her lesbian psychologist enough to let herself be hypnotized to discover why her fanatical desire for a boy child is the key to decades of unremembered nightmares and the reason for her mother's hatred.
