Description
Summary:	Having an addiction can follow the path of a great relationship that goes sour: there's the first blush of romance, the seduction ("you know you want to"), and the downward spiral into either obsession or breaking free. Jill Talbot is no stranger to addiction. Part autobiography, part exposé, Loaded: Women and Addiction weaves Talbot's own battles with addiction with various addiction stories of other women. The result is a captivating, honest look at the allure of addiction--be it to sex, drugs, alcohol, food, adventure, or infidelity--and ultimately its betrayal.
