But that's the thing about they never stay hidden for long.

I downloaded this book because I live in North Carolina and love the stories of the Kindred Spirit. I had so many emotions tear through you when reading this book. I love how the real story unfolded into the book. Although addiction and depression are a touchy subject, the author did a great job! Rip Josh!
