Description

Exposed is Kate Ouimette-Wedell's candid story of finding her way into and out of the commercial sex industry. After arriving in Hollywood to pursue her dream of breaking into the music business, Kate was soon trafficked by a man she believed was a friend. She escaped, but with no other means of survival, she went to work as an exotic dancer and sex worker.

Kate's story takes you through the terror, desperation, and exhaustion of life in the sex industry. Across nightclubs, sex dungeons, and the mansions of A-listers in the Hills, Kate exposes the sex industry for what it is: trauma, exploitation, sexual abuse, and human trafficking. The details may shock you. But, most of all, Kate will inspire you.

Because this is also the tale of how Kate managed to stay hopeful enough-despite betrayal, unrelenting disappointment, and a traumatic past-to rise to a place where she now offers hope and healing to other survivors.

"Dear Survivor," she writes: "I wrote my story for the two of us. I tell it with boldness for you, because you matter and your story matters. My hope is that you find yourself in these pages, no matter where you are on your journey. You are not alone. And, as you are my witness, I am not alone in it anymore, either."
