After the Bed

From the age of five, Kelley Asher has battled the lingering effects from sexual abuse, that caused her to question her faith, and affected her mind and her soul. Not even a teenager yet, she felt like damaged goods, unworthy of any respect. Rebelling against everything she thought she couldn’t have anyway, she sank into a vicious cycle of sex and abuse with man after man.


As a young woman Kelley found herself alone with three young daughters. She struggled to keep her little family afloat, until one day she decided she had enough. She looked into the eyes of her beautiful daughters, and realized she was once a hopeful child filled with promise and love. She did have value! She did have strength! The devil had orchestrated an attack on her very soul, and now she had to reclaim it!


Written with humor, honesty, and shocking vulnerability Kelley Asher’s debut novel is a call to women everywhere to reclaim their worth. God loves all, even those who have made mistakes and have fallen into sexual promiscuity. No matter the sin, you are still worthy of God’s best for your life. Kelley’s story will help you cut the binds to sin of your past. And allow God to set you free. Are you ready for a better life?
