Emily Vaughn, not her real name, has launched a petition calling for an inquiry into grooming gangs, specifically for Wales, after she was groomed from the age of 11.
"But I'm so glad I did [write the book] because it's brought people who've messaged me privately, even people in Wales who've said the same thing happened to them.".
Ms Cooper said the UK government was "taking action" on the recommendations of national inquiries and to "uncover the truth where things have gone wrong".
Ms Vaughn published her memoirs in 2021, detailing how a "vicious cycle" of abuse began after she was groomed into becoming a "county lines" drug trafficker.
The Senedd has voted against a grooming gangs inquiry specific to Wales.
