Signed Moxy Paperback

Chicago, 2001. Seventeen-year-old Heather is pregnant, terrified, and utterly alone. In a desperate, secret decision, she gives her baby up for adoption—a choice that tears her apart and leaves her drowning in guilt and grief. Determined to escape the pain, Heather plummets into a brutal world of addiction, exploitation, and violence. Her life unravels into a chaotic blur of raves, drug binges, smuggling runs, and a relentless cycle of self-destruction. As the darkness deepens, death becomes an all-too-familiar presence. When her world collapses, Heather is faced with a stark choice: keep falling deeper into the shadows or fight for the impossible—to claw her way out and reclaim her body, her identity, and her power. Perfect for readers of gripping true memoirs, addiction and recovery stories, and inspiring tales of resilience, Moxy explores themes of trauma, resilience, survival, and self-discovery. This unflinching account of transformation is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the fight for self-worth. "Moxy is a blistering portrait of the art of resilience. You’ll feel it in your teeth.”
