Amy Brown felt excited about moving to the city. Although the reality of being left alone in her apartment after her parents left was a little overwhelming. However, it wasn't too long before things started to work out in her favor. She had found employment and some new friends who made her feel more at ease. It was also good to have a special friend Joey who seems to have a mysterious past that she's trying to check out before becoming too attached. Although she had some suspicions about Joey it wasn't until she received a surprising call from the hospital that her deepest fears were confirmed. Will she turn her back on him now that he's in the hospital or will she try to help him through his ordeal? Although Turning Your Life Around is a fictional novel except for quotes from two famous authors, it can also be called a true to life novel because it relates to some individuals who may have alcoholic addictions. It is hoped the experiences of the young man named Joey reaching out and finding help in his darkest hour might be an encouragement to readers as well as others who may be needing help from alcohol addiction.
