Another crap book from Brady. Sam is an alcoholic psychologist at a metal institution who drinks with her patients in her office, lets her boyfriend beat her up, & cheats to find validation with men she sleeps with, and then throws fits when her co worker doesn't give her enough attention. This book was written in 3-5 page chapters with dates and times. It drug on forever and really didn't get better. IS the institution staff just stupid to let an employee break rules with no repercussions and not really good for the patients you are treating. IF this was supposed to be about mental health it was severely lacking

I have personal reasons for giving this book just a 1 star

The subject is very hard to read if you have ever experienced anything with mental illness or alcoholism and in fact I could not stick with it, even though Brady is licensed counselor/psychotherapist she wrote a very poor image of anyone in that field, her main character is drunk and goes to work drunk? really? I doubt that would happen, and she is a mean hearted person and she treats people? really?

The story is very slow and as I read in another review it does not have a good ending at all and just ends abruptly, so you may wonder why I'm putting a review here, it's just a warning to anyone that can't handle the subject matter or an unlikeable character
