About this listen

Rainey Paxton was born addicted to heroin.

In the fragile first hours of Rainey’s life, hospital doctors and nurses fight to keep her alive. Several months later, she is released into her parents' custody, where she is forced to live on neglect and tainted breast milk. Constrained in her home infested with drug addicts and drifters, Rainey’s drug-addicted parents leave little hope for her protection.

While Rainey is still an infant, her aunt Sophie visits her and finds the baby dirty and hungry. A bond forms between the two until tragedy strikes. Rainey is alone again until her sister Ivy is born, and the child breathes new life into Rainey’s small, isolated world.

But her parents have another plan, and with no one there to intervene on Rainey’s behalf, she must make sacrifices to feed her parents’ cravings and to keep her sister safe.

Follow Rainey’s journey from a house crawling with junkies to the violent confines of a juvenile detention center, where she finds friendship and learns fearlessness from the most unexpected people.

I am in my car driving all day for work and I couldn't stop listening. I just wish the next ones in the Rainy Paxton series were on audible.

While book was filled with disturbing events you can't help root for Rainy. It was a lot at times to read as a mom your instincts are to protect your children and that's what you want to do for Rainy. This is a heartbreaking and heart griping series.

Disturbingly good.

This isn't a happy "everything works out in the end" book, so don't go into it wanting that roller coster of emotions.. this pretty much stays down in the gutter. It's dark, and vile. Please check your trigger warnings!
All in all this book is about survival and not letting the ugliness of the world make you bitter! Can't wait to see what Rayni**(idk how it's spelled in the book) does in book 2!

at what point do we call CPS?!?

It’s said that this is a nightmare story that many girls live. It’s so sad and tragic sprinkled with bits of personal victories for Miss Rainy Paxton. I found my own voice through her story however not as tragic as she lived. Excellent book…. The Author really can grab the readers from the very beginning.

Frighteningly true

this series takes you on a full on journey into other lives. i absolutely loved the way everything was written, the story it told, even the heartache was still just written so perfectly like it brought me into the life of Rainy Paxton. 5 stars for both books! while this was an incredible series, there are LOTS of triggers.

LOVED

The story of Rainey Paxton is only a bit more extreme than the childhood I had.
I quickly became a champion for Rainey through this story.

Reminds me of The Child Called It series.

It’s a perfect depiction of Kensington streets. Trying to fight addiction and poverty. Can’t wait to read the next book.

It’s sad but reality.
