Special praise for Dark Wine Waters

“Fran Simone’s finely drawn memoir offers testament that love is not enough against the disease of addiction. In sensuous detail, she traces the progression of her husband’s alcoholism, the assault on a rich and loving marriage, and the ways they were twisted into strangers to one another and to themselves. This page-turner confirms that we are all more alike than different on the journey with an addicted loved one, and offers hope that the author’s recovery can be our own.”

It’s Not About You, Except When It Is: A Field Manual for Parents of Addicted Children

“Fran Simone has written a memoir that provides a powerful and insightful firsthand account of the disease of addiction. She chronicles the progression of not only the disease, but also the baffling progression of denial that engulfs the addicted person, leaving family members bewildered, angry, and hurt. I was inspired by her journey, her willingness to tell her story, and the miracle of hope that finds root in tragedy.”
