Is one more drink worth your life? Is it worth hers?

Diane is a fun-loving, intelligent, caring mother and wife when she is sober. When she is drunk, the "monster" takes control and stops at nothing to wreak havoc on the ones she loves. As her alcoholism worsens, Diane spirals out of control. Her oldest child, Anthony, attempts to build the courage to help his mom before the "monster" defeats her once and for all.

In his personal journal, Anthony chronicles three days from hell as he battles his mom's addiction. All of the destruction, failed recovery attempts, and heartaches lead to one bloody moment. Does he save his mom in time? Or does one more drink send her too far gone?

Because Wattpad readers are so loyal, I wanted to tweak my full story and offer my family's struggle to everyone for free. My goal is to spread awareness through our experience with the crippling effects of addiction. Proceeds of my full book will be donated to, "To Write Love on Her Arms."

Will they be able to find love again? Or are they destined to remain apart?

When her boyfriend breaks up with her, she decides to get behind the wheel and is tempted to text him one last thing. Imagine her horror when she smashes into another car, the driver someone very close to her. Will she end up like her mom in prison? Will she let despair and guilt drag her back into darkness or will she find hope for a future, as hard as it may be? This is a book I wrote a few years ago before I found Wattpad.

Storm Of Pain by fictionlover20040228

Have you ever seen your life flash before your eyes? Seen all the good memories with you and your friends and loved ones just pass in a few split seconds before the moment comes where you know you'll die? Where you determine if it's going to be a quick or slow and painful death? Well then, same. I risk my life on a daily bases saving others, strangers, kids, families, anyone my team and I can help ranging from terrorist attacks to bombs to pretty much anything. The training that I received a few years ago allows me to do that, it allows me to be the best person that I can be, if I could go back to the day I joined the military I wouldn't change a single thing; the only thing I would've changed in my journey is to have looked after her better. To have kept her safe. But life had other plans with both of us... ***** All ideas in this book are thought of by me. Nothing has been based of another book. If something is the same as another's, it purely coincidental. *Don't copy from my book *Don't report my book because of a few violent scenes *My book is copyrighted.

The Plus One by ceriswrite

Cecil's face faded out of River's vision while his hands had strangled the life from her throat ten years ago. The only thing that saved her was his own self-control. Since then, Cecil went away and focused on rehabilitating the sadistic urges inside of him. Ten years later he returns home for his cousin's wedding, and he has checked the Plus One box on the RSVP. River has allowed him back into her life, understanding the risks, because of the strength of their history. Fighting the cravings between rehabilitated redemption and exhilarating adventure of execution, can Cecil allow her to live again? TW: Sn*ff, sm*t, viol*nce, ab*se. /// First publication!! For some reason, Wattpad will not allow me to format paragraphs with an indent. I know that is annoying, but please try to ignore it. I am new to putting my work out there lol. This is also supposed to follow a similar format to early 2010's wattpad fanfics, because it started as a writing exercise.

My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow. Glowing eyes were not normal. Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.

SWEET REVENGE by monica23031

The exact words he threw at my face still haunts my dreams every single night and I think I'm starting to believe him. "Wish I've never met you I was so young and stupid, no wonder no one wanted to be with you, you are just holding me down and I honestly just got bored, needed a new chapter in my life that was the main reason I did what I had to do to keep myself happy. I just don't want to lie to myself anymore. I can't do this. I need to be free for once in my life. I'm so relieved that I don't have to marry you anymore, it's like a dead weight lifted from my shoulders. JUST LEAVE! GET OUT NOW! '' I just didn't know what to do that day I way so shocked, one minute we were one big happy family and the next he throws everything we build up as a family. I should had been warned by his actions the last month that we spend together. He knew that he was my first for everything and that gave him a push on his ego. Always bragged about being my first and claiming power over the situation. I was blinded by all of his charms and I see that now, I'm so sorry I did not listen Laura, you were just trying to protect me , that's what best friends are for but I chose him and I am truly sorry. I promise I will get a way to show him that I am not just a waste of space and I am going to do it all just for me and my baby girl. **WARNING** Sexual language and mature content Read at own risk ;) https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Monicanaude
