Kim not only clearly lays out a path to freedom, offering victims of sexual assault encouragement and hope through her story, but also provides valuable resources and measures of prevention.
Kim explains, “So many of us are simply too afraid to be real, fearful that if others knew our secrets, they would not love or accept us. For years, I was one of these people. I lived in fear from horrific rapes and other sexual assaults. Like me, three of my abusers were also elite swimmers.”
Her book is meant to help those who can relate to her story. Since its debut, Master of the Mask instantly launched to number one AMAZON BESTSELLER in multiple categories. It’s the book this world needs now more than ever. Contact Kim directly for interviews and press inquiries.
