Book excerpt: Twenty-one-year-old Rebecca is struggling. She's been kicked off the gymnastics team, loses her scholarship, and has to move back home with her parents. Desperate to eke out a living that will free her from the confines of a life with an alcoholic mother, Becca takes a job as an exotic dancer. Ashamed of what people will call her, she keeps the job a secret from everyone except her best friend, Ally. Forced to live a double life, the pressure becomes too much, and Becca spirals further into a fog of alcohol and drug abuse. While dancing empowers her as she learns to embrace her sexuality, her fragile world is pulled apart when a stranger calls her a whore. She's sick of the pussy grabbing and annoyed with men telling her to smile more. Slowly, Becca starts to realize that misogyny has followed her throughout her entire life-it's not just part of her job. Now, she's just tired of being a woman. As Becca searches for her voice in a world that would prefer she stay silent, what finally pulls her through is something she'd never thought to rely on before.
