"Pregnant at 16" is a deeply personal, informative and impassioned reflection on the outcome of the author's life as a result of her choice to carry and keep her baby when she became pregnant as a teenager, in 1974.

Lori's conversational style of writing eases the reader into her story effortlessly. Her narrative voice is friendly and charming, allowing the reader to develop a sense of personal rapport with the author.

Her passion and understanding for the pressures of teenage life are evident in her writing, and she creates a vivid portrait of the teenage social climate that rings true even today. She handles difficult topics - teenage pregnancy and abortion - with tact, and her experience in the medical field brings interesting insight to an often-veiled issue.

Her genuine, heart-felt prayer is that "Pregnant at 16" will soften hardened hearts toward young, unwed pregnant teenagers and their precious unborn children, and ultimately rescue the unborn from destruction by abortion.

Thirty-five years after her personal experience with teen pregnancy, Lori is now "Honey" to one, "Momma" to three, "Gramma" to four, and remains her daddy's "Little Papoochnick."

Lori and her husband, Joe, enjoy easy river kayaking, mountain hikes, casual evening walks, and entertaining as many guests as they can possibly squeeze into their home.

Women: America’s Last Best Hope is as an educational, inspirational, eye-opening experience. It addresses key public policy issues while stressing the importance of women in our society and the need to stay actively involved. From social issues, to the economy to National defense, the author tackles the hot issues of the day presenting public policy with personal flair. The book outlines the fundamental principles which our nation was founded on; gives an overview of the role of the American homemaker throughout our nation’s history and teaches women how to be actively involved as citizens without sacrificing their homes and families.

 WOMEN is an amazing must read. Written in plain English, this book has opened my eyes not just to the fact that we are living in a different society than our grandparents, but how and why it has become so different. Kimberly Fletcher has written a book for real American Women--those of us who are too busy with our lives to try to wade through and interpret all the political jargon out there. This is America's well thought out, well written wake-up call, and it can't get onto bookshelves soon enough.

 When I finished the book the first thing I thought was how many women I know who need to read it. I can’t believe how much information is in this one little book and how motivated I am because of it. I am ready to join the front lines of freedom and the first thing I want to do is tell all my friends about this book. I have never read a book that impacted me this much.
