Everyone’s perception of an MC princess is that she’s cherished and protected, but this MC "princess" was left to the wolves. My father, the loved Southern Chaotic president, dropped me like a bad habit when I was 13. My mother went off her rocker when I was 14. I had my first of many abortions when I was 15.

This book provides a factual overview of the 28 references that can be found in sacred Scripture about the Divine Heart of God the Father, both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament.
