      Thanks

      I would like to say Thank you to the following people:

      - You, the reader. By purchasing my book, you've helped me to market it to many young girls and their parents in order to protect themselves from many traps that await them in the big city. When possible, I'll raise enough money to setup a web portal, which will provide useful info about the hidden truth of wannabe celeb life. And guess what? Readers like you will have the pleasure of knowing that you made it possible.

      - My best friend and boyfriend John. He stood by me when I needed him the most.

      - My mom and dad. While they were alive, they've helped me with advice and provided a much needed protection.

      Prologue

      Hi, my name is Jenny and I have written this book because I wanted to share my true story with nice people like you. Altough my life wasn't quite as it should have been, I've managed to achieve my goals.

      The bad part

      Like many true stories, this one also starts with a tragedy. After my parent's death I've decided to go to the big city and make something out of myself. Mostly it didn't go as it was planned, where I've found myself many times exploited and hurt. I've fallen into many traps that await an inexperienced young girl on her trip to the big city, trying to make a career there. I got acquainted with rape attempts, drug abuse, sex slave trade and porn industry, just to name a few.

      The good part

      Somehow I've managed to survive, learn from my past mistakes and got lucky with my fashion career. It was a long and hard road, but it was worthy. Why? Because I'm very happy that I'm still alive to be able to write all this, hoping that anyone like me will benefit from my story.

      Yours truly,

      Jenny

      Chapter 1.

      The end of a young, worry-free life

      What makes a place beautiful ? Its architecture? Its history? Its people? Where is that hidden deep within a sketch that turns into a reality, shows a rock, a person or a scene? When I was a teen girl, I lived in one of the most beautiful places in the world, near Shelby in Montana, a wonderful masterpiece of our Mother Nature. My home was situated by the river, where aromas of flowers will chase you everywhere and a crystal clear water would take away any negative feelings one might have.

      I was a cute 16 y old girl, with long brown hair, big brown eyes, full of life, spent my days smiling. My friends told me that my presence always make people happy and I bring them up when they are down, so no wonder I was a light of the party. Well, enough about modest me. If I'm honest, I really was an easy going person, very positive and innocent, with a dreamy mindset. I wanted to help everyone around me, so I worked hard at the little farm we owned, taking care of horses and other pets. I had a secret desire to become a vet one day. So, my life was pretty nice those days.

      I was raised in a hard working family, where my father was strict, but fair. My mom was the soul of our family, taking care of me as an only child. I remember sitting at the porch after a long day of hard work, where my father would play a guitar and my mom would sing old country songs with me. Those were the moments to remember and cherish, because nothing in the world is more important than family, wouldn't you agree?

      But, nothing good can last forever, sadly. A few days before my 16th birthday, my mom gathered a whole family at the table. I have something important to say to you, she said with a serious voice. I just came from a visit at my friend's house and I was happy as always, but as soon as I've seen my mom's face, I got scared like never before. Her look was telling me that the storm is coming. So we sat at the table, when my mom dropped a bomb shell. I'm very sick and I have only a few weeks to live, she said. Immediately, my eyes would shut and the darknes took over me. I've collapsed to the floor, my father lifted me up and took me to bed. I've slept for 15 hours, dreaming the most horrible dreams. When I woke up, my mom was sitting beside me, gently stroking my hair. As soon as I opened my eyes, I started crying and didn't stop for a long time. It's ok, this is just a part of life, she told me. Don't worry, you'll be all right, I've raised a good girl, she added. The next few weeks were the darkest time of my life. My whole family was expecting the worst, no one would dare to speak about the inevitable yet to come. Needless to say that neither of us was smiling at any given moment.

      Then, on my 16th birthday, my mom died. While many teen girls enjoy 16th birthday and having a blast at the party, that was the worst day of my life. I can only be grateful that I was able to say goodbye to her, before it happened. I'm not going to details here, it's too painful for me. Even years after that, I remember every second of this day, and I'd love to forget each moment of it more than anything else. I really hope that no one of my readers has gone
