Summary:
Unwanted and neglected as a child, abused by neighbourhood perverts beginning at six years old, and then by loser boyfriends during her adolescence and beyond, Cathrine Ann became pregnant at fifteen, was pimped out by her rich uncle at seventeen, was jailed at eighteen, and lived as a prostitute in her thirties. But today she is the founder and president of a multi-million-dollar company, Consumer Connection Inc., and a star inspirational speaker. How did that happen? "Beautiful Buttons" is a rough, raw, candid, and surprisingly funny testament to the resilience of the human spirit—an inspiring and empowering self-portrait of a life lived and redeemed.
