About this ebook

Ian James has hit rock bottom, and is bound for rehab. He's lost his faith, his marriage is imploding - and he can't make it more than a few hours without a drink.

Melissa Carmichael is running away. Trapped in a loveless relationship, she packs a bag and leaves home in the middle of the night – heading back to the small New England town she swore she'd seen the last of.

Desperate to prove that he can resist his destructive urges and function in the "real world", Ian decides to forgo treatment and join Melissa on her trip . But Melissa has her own dragons to slay, and pinning his sobriety and hopes of recovery on a complete stranger are just part of the struggle – bars and liquor stores aren't his only temptation...
