Cadence didn't sit down one night and decide that downing two bottles of wine was a brilliant idea.Her drinking snuck up on her - as a way to sleep, to help her relax after a long day, to relieve some of the stress of the painful divorce that's left her struggling to make ends meet with her five-year old son, Charlie.; It wasn't always like this. Just a few years ago, Cadence seemed to have it all--a successful husband, an adorable son, and a promising career as a freelance journalist.; But with the demise of her marriage, her carefully constructed life begins to spiral out of control.; Suddenly she is all alone trying to juggle the demands of work and motherhood. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;; Logically, Cadence knows that she is drinking too much, and every day begins with renewed promises to herself that she will stop.; But within a few hours, driven by something she doesn't understand, she is reaching for the bottle - even when it means not playing with her son because she is too tired, or dropping him off at preschool late, again.; And even when one calamitous night it means leaving him alone to pick up more wine at the grocery store.; It's only when her ex-husband shows up at her door to take Charlie away that Cadence realizes her best kept secret has been discovered....Heartbreaking, haunting, and ultimately life-affirming, Best Kept Secret is more than just the story of Cadence--it's a story of how the secrets we hold closest are the ones that can most tear us apart.;
