All the while, he happily believed every lie alcohol told him.

Lauren Fay didn't want to die—but she didn't want to be alive, either. From the outside, she had it all pulled together: a Naval officer's obedient daughter, high-achieving student, disciplined athlete, and polished professional turned fitness instructor. But behind closed doors, she was coming undone—snorting cocaine between workout classes, polishing off a bottle of wine each night, and dating a rage-fueled drug dealer, hiding it all in secret. While drugs added to the chaos, alcohol was the constant companion she couldn't let go of.

A guy was talking about lifeguarding and that caught my attention because I spent years lifeguarding. I mean, that's how I worked my way through school. It was as a lifeguard.
