‘Darlings, Sarah’s book is the ultimate story of hope, self-belief, and the magic of love. I laughed and cried in equal measure. It’s a compelling story about addiction but, most importantly, it’s a wonderful depiction of a love lost and found again. I couldn’t put it down’

An incredibly powerful story of addiction and redemption, told so lyrically and vividly that it made me cry, then cheer and punch the air. It also made me want to be Sarah Hiscox’s new best friend’
