One day this would come back to haunt her. She would be on the floor with blood in her mouth and her eyes too swollen to see through, and she would remember: he asked and I said yes. I chose this life. At fourteen, Jen makes her own choices. She is in charge of everything that matters in her life, meaning her hopeless dad Terry. When his dream woman Marian moves in, it seems happiness is within reach, but Marian soon moves on, taking her young son James with her. Jen can't help but follow, determined to protect James from his mother's toxic temper, even if it means abandoning herself to the chaos of Marian's life. A novel about love, nakedness and vodka.
