Publisher Description
From an early age, Amber van de Bunt knew she wasn’t like the other girls in town. From childhood struggles with depression and eating disorders, her years as a topless dancer in Florida, and an eventual abortion and suicide attempt, to her rebirth in Los Angeles as a porn star named Karmen Karma, overcoming her relationship with her abusive mother, and her struggle to maintain a clean and sober lifestyle—van de Bunt’s life has been a wild rollercoaster. With humor, alacrity, and profound insight, she reveals her deepest, darkest secrets and pulls no punches—least of all with herself.

Recommend beautiful story
This book left an indelible mark on me! The narrative is both captivating and emotionally charged, making it an outstanding story that will resonate with readers globally. Amber, your life experiences have touched my heart in many ways, and I am deeply inspired by your journey. Your authenticity and vulnerability are a testament to your remarkable strength. Thank you for being a beacon of hope and support to those who have faced similar traumatic events. Your candid and emotional account of your relationship with Kim brought tears to my eyes, as I have also faced challenges in my relationship with my birth giver. Thank you so much for sharing once again! All love, Tiffany.
Easy read
Interesting book, easy read and I’d recommend it!
AMAZING, MUST READ!!! ❤️
I honestly never even knew amber was a pornstar 🙈 I started following her Instagram when she was pregnant...we got pregnant at the same time and had the same due date!
some of her story I could relate to and it hit hard. It’s amazing all the things she has endured and conquered....I just thought she was a new mom with a loving husband who was in the navy! I NEVER in a million years thought she was a pornstar or gone through even a quarter of what she had in her life.
SHE IS THE REAL MVP 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Her book was AMAZING!! I cried at the end 😭 I wish it didn’t have to end!!
I’m so happy for her, her amazing husband and her absolutely beautiful daughter!
I wish them all nothing but happiness and great health💕
Thank you amber for being so brave and opening up to the world to get to know you, all of you ❤️🙏🏼
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book to everyone! I read it in two days I was so hooked 👏🏼
