National Best Seller

An up-close portrait of the mind of an addict and a life unraveled by narcotics - a memoir of captivating urgency and surprising humor that puts a human face on the opioid crisis.

“Raw, brutal, and shocking. Move over, Orange Is the New Black.” (Amy Dresner, author of My Fair Junkie)

When word got out that Tiffany Jenkins was withdrawing from opiates on the floor of a jail cell, people in her town were shocked. Not because of the 20 felonies she’d committed, or the nature of her crimes, or even that she’d been captain of the high school cheerleading squad just a few years earlier, but because her boyfriend was a Deputy Sherriff, and his friends - their friends - were the ones who’d arrested her.

A raw and twisty, pause resisting memoir that sounds like fiction, High Achiever spans Tiffany’s life as an active opioid addict, her 120 days in a Florida jail where every officer despised what she’d done to their brother in blue, and her eventual recovery. With heart-racing urgency and unflinching honesty, Jenkins takes you inside the grips of addiction and the desperate decisions it breeds. She is a born storyteller who lived an incredible story, from blackmail by an ex-boyfriend to a soul-shattering deal with a drug dealer, and her telling brims with suspense and unexpected wit. But the true surprise is her path to recovery. Tiffany breaks through the stigma and silence to offer hope and inspiration to anyone battling the disease - whether it’s a loved one or themselves.

“There’s no such thing as a lost cause, and it’s never too late to start over,” she writes. An incredibly worthwhile read, and I devoured this book as I worked outside in just a few days. If you need a tale of redemption and overcoming addiction, I highly recommend this book. The author’s voice is clear and adds emotional depth, and her read of the book added a personal touch I loved.

I absolutely loved listening to this book. I’ve watched Tiffany on Facebook and always love how real and funny she is as well as all of the daily struggles and topics she talks about. My husband is in recovery and we have 2 kids so I can relate to her as a mom and through his journey into recovery. Tiffany is such a great “story-teller” and keeps you wanting more. I didn’t want to stop listening until it was over. Love that she did the narration as well because it was perfect! Would recommend in a heart beat!

Amazing! Great book and great narration
