Summary

Randall Grange has been tricked into admitting herself into a treatment center and she doesn't know why. She's not a party hound like the others in her therapy group - but then again, she knows she can't live without pills or booze.

Raised by an abusive father, a detached mother, and a loving aunt and uncle, Randall both loves and hates her life. She's awkward and a misfit. Her parents introduced her to alcohol and tranquilizers at a young age, ensuring that her teenage years would be full of bad choices, and by the time she's 23 years old, she's a full-blown drug addict, well acquainted with the miraculous power chemicals have to cure just about any problem she could possibly have - and she's in more trouble than she's ever known was possible.

Slow burner

This story does start off quite slow but it builds and I enjoyed it once it got going

Fantastic. Just disappointed that it’s the only title by this brilliant author.

This title was fantastic and had me hooked from the first chapter to the last. The story was brilliant. I just had to keep listening. I’m just sad there isn’t another book out yet by this fab author. I listened to this title in 24 hours. Got loads of housework done because I was just so engrossed. The narration was really good too and added something special the book. I will be keeping this one in my collections and really hope there is a book coming soon. 5 stars plus all round. I loved it! Will listen to it again in the future……
