Bleeding Maroon

"Don't let desperation make you stupid." When the troubled Maroon meets the observant Gwen, the connection that develops between them may be exactly what she needs to escape the problems shes been ignoring for so long. But when the similarities between them start to reveal the cracks in their friendships - and themselves - they must decide what parts of their lives are worth fighting to keep, and what needs to be left behind. Inspired by the authors own experiences with abuse, homelessness, and mental health, 'Bleeding Maroon' is a devastating and honest acknowledgment of the hardships so many people experience, and the reality of how relationships shape who we become.
