Nothing short of fabulous.Like I said about the first book, Memoirs Aren't Fairytales, this book is so well written it's hard to believe it isn't true. The second novel starts out when Nicole graduates rehab 90 days sober and begins her life again. Marni Mann doesn't lose Nicole's voice in this novel. Each event is so realistic, and the this author is NOT afraid to throw death and harsh reality into her books. I can't stress enough that I was completely entranced with these two books. There is one clear reason why I enjoyed this more than other addiction novels. That is that Nicole made it through years of being sober without relapsing. Nothing is worse than hoping a character makes it through, but you're stuck continuously reading about a relapse, without much else happening. I know that it's realistic, but I feel the author did a superb job making other events happen in this novel that I didn't expect at all. Like love....and death.I won't give you any other spoilers, but I want to say one thing. YOU WILL ENJOY THIS BOOK. I read this sequel with excitement flowing through my veins as I connected more with Nicole and her struggles. I can't even begin to tell you how much this book has touched my heart and my soul. This is a written work very well deserving of some awards of the highest standards. How I relate to Nicole in this book is astounding and numerous times I felt tears flow from my eyes as I was touched emotionally and spiritually. Marni Mann is an expert and I have declared her to be one of my all time favorite authors. These two books from her has inspired me to continue writing in my works but more importantly to work harder in my recovery. I am forever grateful Marni Mann and I look forward to your next book!! PLEASE continue blessing the world with your fabulous work. :-)

Kept me glued, but I did NOT expect that ending.
