Rainey Paxton Series, Book 1

De: Paige Dearth

Narrado por: Lisa Larsen

Rainey Paxton was born addicted to heroin.

In the fragile first hours of Rainey’s life, hospital doctors and nurses fight to keep her alive. Several months later, she is released into her parents' custody, where she is forced to live on neglect and tainted breast milk. Constrained in her home infested with drug addicts and drifters, Rainey’s drug-addicted parents leave little hope for her protection.

While Rainey is still an infant, her aunt Sophie visits her and finds the baby dirty and hungry. A bond forms between the two until tragedy strikes. Rainey is alone again until her sister Ivy is born, and the child breathes new life into Rainey’s small, isolated world.

But her parents have another plan, and with no one there to intervene on Rainey’s behalf, she must make sacrifices to feed her parents’ cravings and to keep her sister safe.

Follow Rainey’s journey from a house crawling with junkies to the violent confines of a juvenile detention center, where she finds friendship and learns fearlessness from the most unexpected people.

Heartbreaker

I could not stop listening to this heartbreaking story. I felt like I was right there in Kensington watching. Going on to the 2nd book wasn’t even a choice it was a must!! My heart breaks for the children living this type of Hell in real life. A must listen and captivating narrator.

Wonderful!!

I love love all of her books and really hope she keeps putting them on audiobooks

Fav new author !

I was hooked from the beginning . This book never had any boring chapters . 15 hours I was shocked ! It had gritty parts . The life Rainy grew up in and her holy shit home life was shocking sad . I
Know it happens in the real. Don’t think it’s some sappy book it’s not soft . The people in it are ….. crazy awful humans .
On top of it being a great book you learn lessons along with her . Now on to book # 2 can’t Waite

Disturbingly good.

While book was filled with disturbing events you can't help root for Rainy. It was a lot at times to read as a mom your instincts are to protect your children and that's what you want to do for Rainy. This is a heartbreaking and heart griping series.

The plot

I know that this kind of stuff really happens in the world. Which is sad, but it draws me in hoping for a happy ending
