About this ebook

"I have never taken an illegal drug in my life, yet drugs have taken away so much of my life. They have left me raw and alone. They’ve broken my heart, crushed my spirit, seized my light, and blinded me with darkness. Drugs have left me in pieces that no longer fit together. This is what it feels like to love an addict. This is what it feels like when an addict loves his drugs more than you."

From the moment she first laid eyes on him, Leah knew her heart would forever belong to Alex. At three-years-old on her first day of school she met her soul mate. For the past eighteen years, their love remained strong overcoming every obstacle determined to break them apart. But now a new, insidious foe threatens to destroy them—the white powder, heroin.

Alex is torn between the love that consumes his heart and the white powder that consumes his mind. Unable to escape the call of the white powder, heroin leads Alex down a dark path to destruction while Leah fights to save her childhood love before they both drown in his disease of addiction.

J.E. Hopkins

I have been writing ever since I can remember. It has always been a passion of mine. It's the perfect way to express whatever emotions I'm feeling for which I cannot vocalize. Writing is my true voice. It's also an avenue to let loose the creative juices that are constantly flowing but that have no place in my primary profession.I am a full-time practicing attorney in New York. My original plan when I began college at New York University was to become a sports reporter. That dream eventually passed (although my interest has not waned) and I went to law school immediately after completing my undergraduate degree. Ever since then I have been practicing law and enjoying every moment of the profession. Although I loved the law, I missed the excitement of creative writing—telling stories and evoking emotions with words. That inspired me to finally realize my dream of writing a novel.In 2007 I published my first novel, The Broken. It's an emotional story of a young woman's journey to overcome the devastation of years of horrid child abuse at the hands of her uncle. At the time, I had not intended on writing another story, but reawakening my love of writing led me to create Lover's Betrayal. As long as that desire is there, I will continue to write stories I hope others enjoy as much as I enjoy creating them.
