Women's Fiction | Coming of Age
Reminiscent of the beloved novels by Mary Kubica and Jodi Picoult comes a chilling portrayal of a sonβs addiction and its harrowing effects on both him and his mother from New York Times bestselling author Courtney Cole. There comes a time when offering your life for your childβs doesnβt work, when you realize that itβll never be enough. The cold needle in his warm vein was a welcome comfort to my son at first. But then it became the monster that kept us apart. Heroin lied, and my son believed. It took him to a world where the last year didnβt happen, to a place where his father was still alive. What Beck didnβt understand was that it couldnβt bring his father back from the dead. It couldnβt take away his pain, not permanently. You think it canβt happen to you, that your kids, your family, will never be in this situation. I thought that too. But youβre wrong. Step into our world, and see for yourself. Watch my golden boy become a slave to this raging epidemic. Watch me try and save him. Drug addiction comes with a price. Trust me, youβre not equipped to pay it. Donβt miss this heartwrenching, evocative, yet hopeful novelβit will leave you forever changed.
