Story
At eight years old, I never imagined my entire world was about to implode. Follow along as I retell the sad and dark turn my life took, and ensuing years working through more betrayal and abuse. I thought I’d never get out of the madness or ever find myself. It turned out to be a lesson because God wanted me to use my experiences as a way to inspire others. This is the tale of decades of my nightmare life and how I made it out on top.

Story
This story is dedicated to all the victims of sexual slavery in German concentration camps, who had to endure inhumane suffering under the Nazi regime. For many years after the atrocities had been committed, both sides - the abusers and the abused - still vehemently denied certain aspects of the Holocaust, and even the victims refused to admit the ugly truth about their incarceration, some out of fear, some out of shame, until several women decided to break an unofficial oath of silence, and brought their stories to life. This book is based on one of those stories. Emilia is a young Jewish woman, whose life slowly turns into a nightmare as she finds herself facing a dreadful choice: to secure her family's very existence by offering herself to one of the men who had put her behind the walls with barbed wire, or perish together with the least fortunate ones.

Emily has always felt like an outsider, so when a family friend takes her under his wing she is delighted. But soon it becomes clear that his motives are not all they seem. At the age of 11, Emily is groomed into being a ‘county lines’ drug trafficker. It is the beginning of a vicious cycle that sees her become prey to one abuser after another, involving a huge child-sex-trafficking gang. The scale of the abuse—at the hands of hundreds of men—is sickening, and at times it feels like there will never be an escape. But then, in the darkest of moments, a ray of light shines....

I was unwanted, beaten, sold, swapped, photographed, filmed, left for dead, corrupted, blamed, betrayed, ignored and orphaned. But I was also born with a fire inside me. I call it my Phoenix Fire. I am no victim—that word only describes what happened to me. Nor am I a survivor because that implies I am over it. I am a Phoenix—a work in progress. This is my story....

Just So Sad.

Publisher's Summary
This extraordinary powerful story of Gloria’s journey from darkness into light is one of hope, resilience, and the unrelenting power of the human spirit to survive.
It’s June 1960, and in middle-class suburban New Zealand, a child was born into sex slavery. For the first 16 years of her life, Gloria suffered horrendous sexual, physical, and psychological abuse at the hands of her father, with no one to protect her. From the underworld of her father’s pedophile ring to the groups he trafficked her to, she found an inner strength and a light that shone so brightly, her mind was the one thing that could not be destroyed.
Experienced through the eyes of a child, On Angels’ Wings will forever highlight the way we deal with child abuse, shining a light on this darkness and challenging us not to assume that every child is safe. One voice speaking out is all it takes to save a life.
About the Author
This is Gloria Masters' first book, simply because it was time for the truth to be revealed. A mother herself, her career includes teaching, therapy, and business consulting. She regularly blogs on gloriamasters.com with a focus on hope, love, and joy, and follows her angels wherever they lead her.

A journey from abuse & stolen innocence to empowerment & charity
I'm absolutely inspired by Gloria's resilience and strength to survive this and go on to help others as she does.
This is not an easy read by any stretch and at times I was left gasping and sobbing for this child as well as so many others I wish I could help.
The author's personal recount of her life experiences bring to light the very real presence of an underbelly that is irrespective of any demographic boundaries, existing historically and to this very day.
Evil lurks among us and is hiding in plain sight.

Gut wrenching yet inspirational..
The trauma and suffering this woman endured is absolutely incomprehensible..
To still have hope and goodness as the very seed of her existence is inspirational and admirable..I was shocked and cried several times from her account of her childhood and was filled with anger towards the caregivers and family that were supposed to protect and nurture. I hope they choke on their guilt and denial of the truth as she soars “with angel wings”

An inspirational story
I first heard of this book after listening to the Podcast ‘The clink’ where Gloria was interviewed. I wanted to know more and hear how she survived. After listening to her story I am amazed at how she has survived such a devastating childhood and how she could be so let down by her family and in particular her mother.
Considering that the system allowed her father to get away with the absolute cruelty and abuse he put her through, her story needs to be heard by as many as possible so that we can somehow hold him accountable and find some justice for Gloria.
Thank you for sharing your story and I wish you nothing but happier times that you so deserve.
