Sixteen-year-old Olivia Mansfield can’t wait to escape the confines of her home, which promises nothing but perpetual torment and abuse from her stepfather.

Why the author wrote this book:

I gave my life to the Lord and ministry at a Teen Challenge center when I was 15. The Diamond Estates series tells the stories of many girls I knew there, and my own.
