I Married My Daddy: A Personal Journey to Self

By Gigi Wilkins

I Married My Daddy is a riveting story of a family contending with the afflictions of physical and mental abuse. Very intense, this book illuminates much-needed attention to the devastating long-term effects PTSD can have on a family when gone untreated.

That message being, although she despised her father
