Have you ever found yourself so deep in your own mess with no idea of how you were going to make it out? That is exactly what happened to me when I found myself behind the bars of a federal penitentiary. In this riveting memoir, A Black Girl in Orange: Finding strength through the struggle, I take you, the reader, on a personal journey with me while serving a fifty-nine month sentence.

As I served my time, there were many devastating moments that I encountered. My experiences rendered me both the strength and courage to share them with the world. Those moments stem from giving birth to my second son, to spending long periods of my time in solitary confinement. One of my biggest challenges I endured, was maintaining my sanity while surviving in a hostile environment. There is no shortage of drama in this story as I learn to balance and cope with the events happening in the free world, all while experiencing the harsh realities of prison life. You will witness lessons, survival, growth and ultimately transformation throughout this journey with me.

Throughout my experience, I have learned that growth and ownership can be painful yet necessary to reach our fullest potential and purpose. For that reason, every detail has been told  with complete transparency. I personally promise you that this suspenseful page turner will leave you wanting more and more until the very end. Most importantly, I promise that my story will serve as a catalyst for those who also have an impactful story but have yet to share it with the rest of the world.
