Description

You don't fall in love with an alcoholic - you fall in love with a man. At least at first.

Why do women fall for 'damaged' men

Why do women keep looking for love to fix everything

I knew what it was to poison oneself, the strange pleasure in the pain you could produce in your own body - the feeling of control that gave.

I knew that profound physical discomfort allowed no emotion, and that that had often been the whole point.

Dan's drunkenness seemed comparatively joyous. He never got ill - not even a cold. there were no scars. If this was self-destruction, perhaps it wasn't so bad after all.

Skye Rogers tells her moving story about the great love - and fight - of her life. Lyrically written and many-layered, Drink Me is a book everyone who has ever loved should read.

Author Bio

A lifelong illustrator, Skye admits she has been doodling since she was a very young kid. It was, she says, the only thing she was good at. A self-confessed self-taught artist, Skye has developed her own style over the years, and in late 2007 she began her own business, Skyes the Limit (http://www.skyesthelimit.com.au/), printing her designs onto lovely quality card from her desktop printer. Today her uniquely illustrated work graces everything from cards, stationery and soap packaging, and is licensed to many companies worldwide, including Waterstones in the UK. Skye lives in Sydney. Her greatest joy is still playing with bits of paper.
