But a simple DNA test from Ancestry.com shattered my world, revealing a truth more profound and unsettling than I could have ever imagined: I was a \"Not Parent Expected.\" My father wasn't who he said he was.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis discovery launched me on a journey to reclaim my identity and rewrite my own story. With unflinching honesty, I detail the fight to survive childhood sexual abuse, the harrowing experience of learning that I became pregnant by my rapist, and the decades of secrets that followed. Now I have officially given birth to an NPE. This book is a raw and courageous memoir about the ultimate quest for self-discovery-and the surprising peace that can be found when you finally confront the truth. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe shadow of my childhood was a landscape scarred by abuse and the stark reality of surviving foster care. The path I was forced to walk seemed to lead only through darkness, culminating in the heart-wrenching moment I stood by and watched my mother life be taken. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMy entire life was built on a foundation of lies. The abuse was a secret, the pregnancy was unexpected, and the man I called my father wasn't my father. The first two secrets nearly destroyed me. The last one set me free. Follow the journey of a woman who was forced to confront childhood sexual abuse, the impossible truth when she learned that she carried her rapist's child, the devastating revelation that her own identity was a lie and how her family became her DARVO. This book is not for the faint of heart, but it is for anyone who has ever felt broken. It is a story of fighting for your life, finding your truth, and building a future on your own terms. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book is a chronicle of that search for light. It is an honest, unvarnished account of navigating the complex terrain of grief, forgiving the unforgivable, and finding a voice in the quiet aftermath of trauma. This is the story of how I learned to heal not by erasing the past, but by embracing it as a part of my own. I hope that in these pages, you will find a reflection of your own strength and the courage to begin your own journey toward healing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandra Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798294781682\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/10\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Sandra Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48450337177855,"sku":"9798294781682","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_61640cf1-ee02-4c6c-a65a-a5a28d924d03.jpg?v=1777267218","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/npe-birthing-an-npe-sandra-wiley-9798294781682","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
