HIV Infected by her cheating Pastor husband
I read this book in one day. Being a single woman of God, I am grateful for the testimonies of those whom God has brought out of bad situations. I'm more grateful to avoid these situations all together by the grace of God. I'm blessed to spread the gospel and live in my singleness as a whole person. Being delivered from the lesbian lifestyle I can see God's protection and mercy. I've also learned that I don't have to be married to be affective in the Kingdom of God. Living Holy is my pleasure and as a Son of God, I too plan to give my testimony to all whom will listen. My novel Trapped Inside, is only the beginning!PROPHETESS L.A. Holts

Informative
I give this book a 5 because it sounds truthful and is very informative. Everyone should know that there are people out there who will pass this deadly disease on to other people without regard to the life of the person the disease is being passed to. The situation is not uncommon in this day in age. I wish I could say this is an isolated incident, but that would not be sufficient either. AIDs/HIV are at epidemic proportions and it is sad that we make others feel sad because they have this disease at no fault of their own. What we all have to do, as. Darlene said is show some love and compassion to those who suffer from this disease. Be informative about this disease. Protect yourself and teach your children about this disease. Don't be afraid to talk about it. Thank you Darlene for having the courage to tell your story. Everyone should read this book. Information is power. It takes a lot of courage, integrity and honor to warn those who have not been infected yet. Darlene could have remained silent and let others learn the hard way, but she has the love and compassion to warn us so we stay connected to God and Jesus, learn that forgiveness takes time, remind us how important our families are, letting us know that there is nothing wrong with loving someone unconditionally, cause that is how God loves us. When I read this story, I was not sad and I did not cry, I was uplifted and happy about the author's willingness to help save others from destruction.

Truly An Inspiration and a must read!!!
I cried and I laughed and then I cried and laughed again. From the very beginning and up to the very end I was touched by this story. This book was not only informational but inspirational. I am not a reader but I could not put this book down. One would think that a person suffering from such a disease would be miserable and mean but Darlene is quite the opposite. HIV has not defeated her, but on the contrary she defeated it! By staying positive and relying on her faith in God. There are so many great chapters that I could name but I would hate to spoil it for those who haven't read the book yet. I can only tell you that some things made me cry and some things made me laugh uncontrollably! She is a true survivor and an admirable advocate for those suffering in silence! This book also describes true facts about the lifestyles that so many people are living and without regard or respect for the life that God leased to us. When reality hits home, a different kind of light is shed on so many realities. I'm not just saying that this book is awesome...I am screaming that this book is a must read! More than likely you will not be able to put this book down because it draws you in immediately!

INSPIRATIONAL AND AMAZING!
Darlene King has written an amazing autobiography about her long-term bout with HIV which she received as a "gift" from her husband who was a pastor. Her story is filled with triumphs and sorrow that you can laugh and cry along with. The story is one that you won't want to put down because there are twists and turns throughout it. Ms. King is truly a survivor. She has battled this illness for twenty years which started during an era where few survived. Her love of family and strong faith in God is what attributes to her formula for "staying alive."While some of her story may shock you, it will at the same time open your eyes to the reality of what life as the wife of a pastor really is about behind the scenes. Ms. King is most elegant in her ability to forgive those who have done her wrong--starting with her cheating husband who passed along this possible death sentence to her with no remorse. You will certainly be inspired by her outlook in life. I know I was--and many of her words and thoughts will be passed on to others--by me and many others who read this book!This book is amazing! Treat yourself to a wonderful story which will make you stand up and cheer (or at least sit down and cheer!) all the way until it ends.

An Awesome Book/ An Awesome Author and Person
This story is so real, heartfelt and captivating about a woman of God who started out, according to the book, being about self, could turn into being so selfless and move forward with all that she has been through. More middle schools, (yes because there are pre-teens out here having sex,) high schools, and churches need to have an open forum about how HIV is passed around and many people are silent, yet they speak up about sexuality and the legalization of drugs, but won't speak a word about HIV until someone whom they know has it. I loved every page of this book. #letsbreakthesilence #supportthisbook

A story of a Sister's Survival through devastating times
It is true that you never know what someone is going through. People smile and seem okay but they are hurting inside. The real life events that Darlene King has put on paper will have an effect on everyone who reads this book. Darlene is a very courageous and caring woman, who through all she has endured has a testimony unlike anyone you might know. This book will minister to you personally. Just the section on forgiveness is in line with what God requires of us. Wonderful job!!!! To God Be The Glory.
