Hell on Heels

By: Anne Jolin

Narrated by: Maxine Mitchell

I use people. Not in a malicious way, but in the way an addict abuses their substance of choice. People are my vice - men specifically. I crave the emotional high they give me, with a unique and reckless disregard for my own well-being - eagerly floating into an unsustainable euphoria, knowing full well that after every high comes an equal, if not more powerful, plummet into a devastating abyss. But like every junkie, I crawl willingly back into the arms of my demons.

Oh, the price we pay to feel loved. We'd all sell our souls to the devil himself for that. Perhaps I have already.

They say that acknowledging that you have a problem is one of the first steps to recovery. Well, in that case, my name is Charleston Smith, and I have a f--king problem.

Love this book

Heartfelt

Great book with an extremely valuable lesson at he end definitely worth the read. A GREAT READ!!!!!!

Thank you

I loved this book! Was very refreshing and powerful. I really dug the ending. Thanks

Not an ending I expected

So I think most people already commented about the open ending, the ending leaves it up to you to decide the last person she chose, and even though I didn't like it, I understand. The narrator made it a little hard in the beginning to listen to the book as her breathing got the better of me, but when I start off with a book I always try and finish it. I wasn't able to o relate to the character that much but I could relate to the pain, and I had a good cry at the ending. Not the best book I have listened to, but not going that bad either

So many feels...

I love the books with an unexpected ending that take you on a journey. This is one of those books. Enjoy it. I did.

lies inside

she's in a relationship with Bo, fucking Dean, and kissing Maverick. That's the definition of the whore that she claims she is not.

Love wins

Loved it but hoped she chose Dean or Maverick... glad she was able to love

No True Fairytale Ending

Since this book deals with the subject of addiction and loss from the prospective of a sister for her brother it's a touching story. I even understand why the author chose to make the lead character her own hero. If you are ok with a non-cliffhanger, cliffhanger this is the book for you.

Deep

What a wonderful enlightening read!

I can see where this story can be quite healing for some.
Thankful for you!

Such a relevant book.

I think Anne Jolin dealt with some important issues and questions that women are faced with nowadays. The way we interact with men and society's expectations is so nicely approached.
A necessary read to a woman in the beginning of the 21st century. Grief and the repercutions faced by a family that fought addiction are so vividly portraited.
