商品簡介
The sister of “La Diva de la Banda”—legendary Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera—opens up for the first time about Jenni’s untimely death and her own triumph over abuse and addiction.
Jenni Rivera was the top selling female Mexican-American recording artist of all time, before a plane crash ended her life on December 9, 2012.
But to Rosie Rivera, she was simply “sister.”
Now, for the first time since Jenni’s death, Rosie has found her own voice. With unflinching candor and courage, she recounts her very personal and very difficult story—from a childhood filled with love and praise to sexual abuse at the hands of a family member. The resulting trauma sent her life spiraling into a never-ending cycle of addiction, depression, and promiscuity, culminating in a suicide attempt. But, thanks to the unconditional love and compassion of her beloved sister, Jenni, Rosie was able to reconcile with her family, her faith, and—most importantly—herself.
Filled with compelling stories of her family’s humble beginnings, their meteoric rise to stardom, and Jenni’s fatal crash, this memoir is a testament to Rosie’s strength—and her struggle to fit together the broken pieces of her life on a new path towards hope and healing.
