"I am a whore." These four words begin the story of Jemimah, a teenaged "borderline ex prostitute," struggling to find a way out of the street life she has lived since she was 12. After getting lost leaving a john's house, she meets Jake, a gorgeous pimp who is obsessed with 2 things: his Really Raspberry acrylic fingernails, and Jesus. With the help of Coco, a quick witted nail salon owner, and Jemimah's own strong will and determination, not even abuse, murder, or a horrifying suicide can keep her from completing her journey from the ground to God. If you're ready for a rollercoaster ride, then buckle your seatbelts because From the Ground to God is a suspense filled psychological thriller that you don't want to miss.
I may be a little biased because I met the author at the Literary Festival in Clemson, SC several years ago, but this is really a great read that will have you thinking a lot! It has a great storyline and this book is not at all boring! I highly recommend it!
