Review
"It was a pleasure to have you on the program to talk about your book
Brothel Bible: The Cathouse Experience and also about your life as a former prostitute. The conversation we had was most interesting, and as I was finishing up talking to you I realized that we have simply scratched the surface concerning your four years inside a brothel. For those of us who have never ventured into such an establishment, the unknown and forbidden often draws the greatest curiosity. Being on our show was an eye opener for many of our listeners." --
Peter Anthony Holder, Host, CJAD Tonight, 800 AM, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, August 12, 1997"The road to the
Brothel Bible-- Determined to share her story, to show that the girls are people, she printed the pages out on her ink jet printer, and bound them together using her hot glue gun from Wal-Mart. A few months later, she has a distributor and has been on television and radio shows, as well as book stores promoting her book. --
Deana Di Dio, Writer, Las Vegas Senior Press, September 1997Although she is a relatively new author, her book is doing quite well, satisfying the public's curiosities about prostitutes, brothels, and sex. As a book seller, I can honestly say, that most books I come into contact with do not have this sort of sales potential nor is it worth such noteworthy national attention, but I honestly believe that this book and its author are definitely qualified candidates. --
Monica L. Miceli, Community Relations Coordinator, Border's Books Shop and Cafe, Las Vegas, Nevada, July 15, 1997Cathouse details cause weekend interruptus. It takes a special assignment to draw the interest of a reporter on a Saturday afternoon. Normally, a book- signing doesn't do it. Unless, of course, the book happens to be
The Brothel Bible. The other members of the group, mostly men, sat as attentively as a group of world scientists at a forum on Martian microbes. I listened for more than an hour. The men seemed fascinated with the details of the world's oldest profession. --

From the Inside Flap
The Brothel Bible has been compiled by Sisters of the Heart, former working girls, who have experienced life in the legal Brothel Industry of Nevada. We have chosen to compile this information for those men and women out there who are simply curious, for those that have never frequented a legal Brothel, and for those customers who want to experience the true inner sanctums of our private world. Our source of information has come from our own personal experiences, research and diaries. We have written this book to break down that unspoken Mystique that seems to surround the Brothel Industry.
We have seen, heard, watched, listened, observed and absorbed experiences throughout these years by working alongside girls from all walks of life, and servicing customers from around the world. We have worked in a variety of environments, north and south, from plush houses with tiffany chandeliers, to run down double-wide trailers. Sometimes we've even found ourselves imprisoned in Brothels with locked gates, boarded windows and armed guards. Sometimes, we've lived like a Princess and sometimes like a Pauper. We've been higher than a kite, earning hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to being desperate, lonely and broke, living from motel to motel, or out of our cars.
As we write these words today, the feelings and memories of our experiences are alive within us. They range from satisfaction and excitement to resentment and rage. It is our desire to share these diverse emotions with you. This is not a clinical examination or objective review of Brothels. This is The Cathouse Experience and our goal of communicating it would fall short of it's mark if we were to sterilize and objectify what we have written.
We hope you enjoy the old time illustrations we found which we have used throughout this book. We thought they were fun. Since as authors we are remaining anonymous, so will our acknowledgments. But those of you who have contributed know who you are and our heart embraces each and every one of you -- for we are all Sisters of the Heart.
