"The true story of a wife and mother's descent into alcohol addiction - a harrowing and sometimes heartbreaking chronicle of habitual blackouts and unremembered nights - and her triumphant emergence into the light of recovery. Before she stopped drinking for good, Kim was lying to herself and everyone she knew about her daily habit-sneaking morning sips of vodka behind her husband's back, emptying bottles of wine and hiding the evidence from her family, and convincing herself that nothing was wrong and everything was under control. Until she realized that it wasn't, and that her dishonesty could cost her everything she loved. What would happen to her marriage if things continued in this way? And how could she be a mother to her young children if she remained trapped in this cycle of abuse? Deciding she had to make a change, Kim threw herself into a new life of sobriety seven months into the Covid-19 pandemic. But only after severing the chains of bondage did she realize how much work there was still to do. Opening the doors to buried memories and past traumas was only the beginning. Throughout her journey to sobriety, Kim would come to terms with the secrets and lies told by her parents and loved ones, allowing her a clarity and freedom she never before thought possible"--

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK @iReadBookTours
On the Edge of Shattered is Kimberly Kearns' story of her own alcohol addiction. Kearns doesn't sugarcoat anything, you will get the raw truth of what her life was like as an alcoholic. And it sure wasn't the pretty picture Hollywood gives us. They make it look as though everyone is doing it, why not me. I'm thankful that Kearns was willing to put her story out there for all to see, not for people to bash her about it, but for those in the same place she was to be able to find help as well. It's not easy to read parts of the book, but they are important so readers can see the whole picture.Thank you goes to this author. I pray that everyone seeing or reading her story will find the hope Kearns found. If this is something you need help with, please follow her advice. A special thanks to the author/publisher for a copy of this book. I am not required to write a positive review, the opinions here are mine alone. I am disclosing this with my review in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255.
