Wake Up, Mummy: The Heartbreaking True Story of an Abused Little Girl Whose Mother Was Too Drunk to Notice


Description

'I squeezed through the narrow gap and out into the hallway and I stood for a moment, unable to decide where to go. Should I make a dash for the kitchen, where my mother would be swigging from a bottle? Or should I run upstairs and try to find somewhere to hide? It was a choice I didn't really need to make, because there was no escape.' Anna Lowe grows up on the doorsteps of pubs, waiting for her mum to come out. Having to give up her bedroom to her mother's drunken friends. And regularly calling out the ambulance, after finding her mother unconscious and covered in vomit. But it is when they move in with her mother's boyfriend Carl that things take the ugliest turn. Not only is he violent with her mother, but he also sexually abuses Anna from the age of six - destroying any semblance of normal childhood she had left. "Wake Up, Mummy" is the heartbreaking true story of a little girl who eventually found the courage to break free from the past.

All struggle to cope with their losses - and for some, unimaginable freedoms - in the alleys and crowded waterways of 19th century Canton. As transporting and mesmerizing as an opiate induced dream, River of Smoke will soon be heralded as a masterpiece of twenty-first century literature. Tabloid journalist Sydney Blair always believed there was more to the world then what meets the eye. So when a hot-tip leads her to interact with a "magickind", Sydney's determined to uncover all their secrets. When wizard Bram Rion and the rest of the Doomsday Brethren find out Sydney is sniffing around, and that she was given the Doomsday Diary as a birthday gift, they know something must be done. Caden MacTavish is the person to do this, a wizard who's denied his magical heritage for years, instead joining the US Marines in pursuit of a "normal" life. Now he's been summoned back by the Brethren, ordered to find out just how much Sydney knows and to shut her up. But when Caden meets the fiery redhead, sparks between them fly and he's soon in way over his head. Caden Wake Up, Mummy: The Heartbreaking True Story of an Abused Little Girl Whose Mother Was Too Drunk to Notice download epub knows he must do everything possible to protect Sydney from Mathias and his desire to get his hands on the diary, even if it means risking his heart.
