Nobody's Daughter

2023 Literary Titan Gold Book Award Winner“(Ramos) emerges from the reflective process with grace and a new position of power—a highly recommended read for anyone interested in self-help strategies, memoirs of abuse and recovery, and those involved in transforming lives from the foundations of abuse to achieve empowerment.”—Midwest Book Review“Nobody’s Daughter is a lucid recollection of a childhood no one would have chosen. Ramos’s courage as a sexual abuse survivor has an inspiration of its own. Her yearning for her mother’s love is heartbreakingly raw. In a fiercely candid voice, Ramos has crafted a tale that resonates with the universal truth that our past doesn’t define us; it refines us.” —Allison Hong Merrill, author of Ninety-Nine Fire Hoops“Nobody’s Daughter is masterfully written! With insight, love, forgiveness, and an evolved understanding, Rica Ramos dives deep into the complexities of mother-daughter relationships as they are woven through real-life ups and downs and the traumas that so many of us must overcome. A compelling read I could not put down. This book will benefit every woman.”—Linda Lee Blakemore, speaker, advocate, and author of Entrenched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting Go and Kids Helping Kids Break the Silence of Sexual Abuse“Nobody’s Daughter is a compelling memoir that I would recommend to many who have overcome abuse or who know someone who has suffered from abuse. It is also an insightful look at the mother and daughter relationship and shows readers that their own self-worth matters over the cultural stigma of honoring their mother. Through Rica’s story, other women will find validation and strength to stand up for themselves and know their voice matters.” —Literary Titan, 5-star review
