  Considering my suicide, I stared out a window in Maryland and saw that rain blurred colors in a parking lot. The shame of being sexually abused caused recurring nightmares, and a life that became a complex facade of covers, military titles and secrets never told. In this book, published poet and author Adam Volant shares his own testimony of brokenness and success, rising from childhood abuse to flag officer in the military’s most specialized cyber operations. Centered on a poem written in the depth of his darkness, this honest portrayal illuminates a hurt that many harbor inside. After years of attempting to cover, reconcile, and cope with years of abuse, frail lies tied to alcohol and drugs pointed to his death. Reading No More Secrets will help unravel how horrible things can be used to draw us nearer to a more important truth.

  The Saturday Night Sauvignon...

  It’s time for a w(h)ine 
  “God, she’s funny” – Jilly Cooper 
  ‘Oh, for f*ck’s sake’ muttered Claire under her breath, as she opened the fridge to see what she could find for a no effort dinner. The children continued to fight behind her. They regarded any form of fish not encased in breadcrumbs as toxic, and were resistant enough to the delicious homemade fishfingers Claire had made for them, insisting they much preferred Captain Birdseye’s version. White wine was starting to look like quite an appealing dinner actually.  Maybe just a small glass. 
  ‘Are you having wine, Mum?  You know you’re not supposed to have wine every night.  We did about alcohol units at school.  That’s quite a big glass of wine, how many units do you think are in it?’ 
  ’Bet the bastards didn’t tell you that wine is remarkably good at cancelling out whining though, did they?’ muttered Claire. 
  Claire’s family has gone nuclear. Her precious moppets keep calling Childline when she feeds them broccoli, she’s utterly Ottolenghied out at weekends, and her darling husband is having an affair with her best friend. 
  The question isn’t whether she needs a glass of wine, but is there one big enough? 
  Enter the Sauvignon Sisterhood, a new set of friends brought together by a shared love of liquid therapy. Together they might just be able to convince Claire that, like a good bottle of red, life really can get better with age. Or at least there’s more to it than the joy of an M&S non-iron school uniform. 
  Claire's humorous and biographical journey through divorce and the trials of marriage, as told by Sunday Times bestselling author Gill Sims, is a testament to the power of friendship and the resilience of relationships. The Sauvignon Sisterhood, a group bound by their shared love for liquid therapy, proves that life, like a good bottle of red, can indeed get better with age. 
  For fans of Sophie Kinsella (What Does it Feel Like?), Freya Kennedy (The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn), Kristen Bailey (Textbook Romance), Alexandra Potter (More Confessions of a Forty-Something F**k Up), and Jane Fallon (Getting Rid of Matthew).
