About this ebook

Cassie was just a little girl who wanted to be loved. Betrayed by her mother in the most horrific manner, and abused by her ‘uncle’, she had to fight to survive the demons of her past.

Cassie couldn’t remember when the abuse began, but from an early age she knew that her life was different from other children. Her mother made it clear that she wasn’t wanted, she wasn’t loved and He said that he was her friend, that this was his way of showing her that she was special.

With no one else to turn to, finally she found the courage to speak out, to tell her mother what he did to her. But her mother wouldn’t listen, and with horror, Cassie was to discover exactly who her abuser was, and why she would never be heard.

I Did Tell, I Did is the incredible story of a girl who was betrayed by everyone who should have loved her, and how she overcame the pain to find happiness and love, and to learn how to live with her past.

Ratings and reviews

I couldn't put this book down. I'm usually a slow reader, at times taking months to finish a novel. I opened this book & lost a night of sleep finishing it in 8 hrs. A record for me. I have my own life trauma when it comes to my children & this heart wrenching story was extremely therapeutic to my soul. I'm so proud of Cassie in who she has become today. What a great example of triumph over loss & evil she is. Thank u cassie for sharing your life story with us. Your helping people more than u know!

Often the story is extremely repetitive but ultimately a good read. A brave record of one woman's hell on earth throughout her most important formative years

I was really getting into this book and most of chapter 17 was missing so the rest of the book was ruined I would love to know how to make a complaint to Google play
