About this ebook

Perfect for fans of Ellen Hopkins—a heartbreaking tale of family tragedy and drug addiction where sometimes the best intentions lead to the worst possible outcomes.

Cecelia Price killed her brother. At least, that's what the police and the district attorney are saying. Although CeCe is now locked up and forced into treatment, she knows the story is much more complicated. Cyrus wasn't always a drug-addled monster. He used to be a successful athlete, but when an injury forced Cyrus off the soccer field and onto pain medication, his life became a blur of anger, addiction, and violence.

All CeCe could do was stand by and watch, until she realized an effective way to take away her brother's drugs while earning the money she needed for college: selling the pills. Only she never expected what happened next.

Ratings and reviews

I cried, I smiled, felt so many feelings. This book is one of the best I've read in a long time and to think I just happened to stumble across it. I feel so connected to this story because I've dealt with addiction myself and with my siblings. I also am dealing with "losing" the brother I idolized. Although in a different sense. Everything the author wrote when it came to the brother and sister relationship, hit me to the core. Thank you so much for this wonderful read, I think it would make a great film😉

I am not much of a reader at all but I was like a sponge soaking up every bit of the book. I related a lot to the a story and it actually brought some peace to me.
