Growing up on a strict Amish farm, rebellious Naomi Swartzentruber covets her "English" neighbors and longs for all the worldly freedoms that her religion forbids. Despite a happy childhood, as Naomi comes of age, she begins to experiment with anything and everything that could have grave consequences, and finds herself craving a life that goes against everything her family believes in. After running away, Naomi embarks on a relentless pursuit of freedom that proves how naive and ill-equipped she is to navigate life outside of "Amishland." Determined, Naomi forges ahead and finds herself in the ultimate taboo playground: Las Vegas, where she quickly learns that her youth, beauty, and innocence are valuable commodities that can make all her wildest dreams come true. Naomi becomes an exotic dancer, then a call girl, in the most sinful city in the world. Yet just as her parents warned, this glamorous world soon leads Naomi down a dark path that begins to consume her, and her desire to experience the forbidden turns into a more sinister addiction that puts her life, and the liberty she so desperately desires, at risk. This erotic memoir reveals what happens when one woman is denied the truth and goes looking for what lies beyond the peaceful mirage of her sheltered Amish farm. Despite the rough terrain she chooses, Naomi never gives up on finding what lies at the end of her path, a life more amazing than she could've ever imagined.
