About The Book

‘Nothing short of a modern masterpiece. Amber Smith, bestselling author of The Way I Used to Be

“A must-read.” Laura Nowlin, bestselling author of If He Had Been with Me

The story of a teenage girl on the brink, and the bumpy road back to recovery.

Bella is at breaking point. Everyone in her life needs something from her, and there’s only one thing that dulls the pain.

Alcohol smooths the sharp edges and makes things so much easier. When Bella drinks, she doesn’t feel heartbroken over her ex. Or caught in the middle of her parents’ divorce. Or overcome with grief for her grandmother.

But one night changes everything. When she awakes in hospital with no memory of what happened, it’s time to face reality. And for Bella, that means rehab and the bumpy road to recovery.

‘Stunning in every sense of the word.’ Josh Silver, author of HappyHead

‘Raw, powerful - and utterly brilliant.’ Ravena Guron, author of This Book Kills
