ABOUT THE BOOK
BY DEBRA LEE EDWARDS
PAIN IS A REQUIREMENT
Sharon Mims overheard her granddaughter Gracie Mims speaking to a mirror and what the elite socialite overheard seemed to evoke a familiar feeling from her distorted past. Being the nosey, forceful woman she’d always been, she challenged her granddaughter on a series of occasions trying to fulfill her hunch but was outsmarted at every turn by her granddaughter Gracie.
Pain is a Requirement, is a story that uncovers and exposes different aspects of abuse through molestation, rejection, physical and mental abuse, and rape.
“What happens in the end will literally knock your socks off or take your breath away!”
