For the Love of a Lush is one emotional book as it tackles a quite important issue. It picks up from the where the first book ends and centers around Walsh and Tammy. Walsh has learned of a betrayal and his way of dealing with as implied in the title is by turning to the bottle.The character development in this book is exceptional. Walsh and Tammy are on two separate journeys back to each other, but we are able to fully see and identify with both. There is drama, pain, and tough conversations and it made me happy that the author did not shy away from them and make this is a “fluff” piece.Yes, For the Love of a Lush is a work of fiction but I believe it is something that anyone that has had a relationship (whether romantic or platonic) with a person that has had any type of addiction can relate to. This is a story of forgiveness, strength, overcoming pain, redemption, and most of all love. I applaud Selena for writing this book!
