Lauren Ashley Mastrosa, 34, is the author behind the controversial book “Daddy’s Little Toy,” written under the pseudonym Tori Woods.

The novel explores the story of Lucy, an 18-year-old woman who engages in toddler roleplay with an older man, sparking considerable debate and concern.

The 210-page book is visually striking, with a cover adorned in pink pastels and the title creatively displayed using children’s alphabet blocks.

Mastrosa was taken into custody following a police raid at her residence, where authorities uncovered 16 physical copies of the contentious publication.

She is currently awaiting sentencing, with further court proceedings to determine her fate.
