"Ally’s story of despair transformed into victory is at once captivating, gut-wrenching, and full of hope. From the first chapter, you are welcomed into a world that all too many people know, and too few are willing or able to share with others. But with Ally and Grant, the door is courageously flung open so that others who live in the same kind of world can find real hope for healing and restoration. Thanks Ally, for inviting us in!”
