by Lacey London


  With her best friend, Aldo, by her side, can Sadie crawl out of the impossibly dark hole and take back control of her life?

  Once you have hit rock bottom, there's only one way to go...

  Lacey London has spoken publicly about her own struggles with anxiety and hopes that Sadie will help other sufferers realise that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

  The characters in this novel might be fictitious, but the feelings and emotions experienced are very real.

  Anxiety Girl Falls Again

  After an emotional voyage through the minefield of anxiety and depression, Sadie decides to use her experience with mental health to help others.

  Becoming a counsellor for the support group that once helped her takes Sadie’s life in a completely new direction and she soon finds herself absorbed in her new role.

  Knowing that she’s aiding other sufferers through their darkest days gives her the ultimate job satisfaction, but when a mysterious and troubled man attends Anxiety Anonymous, Sadie wonders if she is out of her depth.

  Dealing with Aidan Wilder proves trickier than Sadie expected and it’s not long before those closest to her start to express their concerns.

  What led a dishevelled Aidan to the support group?

  As Sadie delves further into his life, her own demons make themselves known.

  Will unearthing Aidan’s story cause Sadie to fall back into the dark world she fought so hard to escape?

  Anxiety Girl Breaks Free

  Life is full of difficult questions, but this shouldn’t be one of them…

  Aidan is back. He is standing right here in front of me. This could be the start of something special. It should be the start of something special. Only life isn’t always that simple, is it?

  With Aidan back in Cheshire and work on Blossom View well under way, it would appear that things are finally falling into place for Sadie Valentine.

  Her career with the charity is keeping her busy, Aldo is enjoying being off the market and her relationship with her mother is starting to heal, but it’s not long before the cracks start to show.

  Not wanting to succumb to the anxiety that is slowly casting a shadow over her newly-found happiness, Sadie attempts to press on with her life regardless.

  As Sadie tries to paper over the cracks, blasts from the past return to tip her world upside down in ways she could never have imagined.

  With her limits being tested once again, can Sadie use her experience and strength to break free from her anxiety once and for all?

  They say that the past should stay buried, but what if some ghosts simply refuse to lie low?
