The life of a rockstar includes endless drugs, girls, and parties. However, when you have a wife and a daughter, you have to choose a side or lose everything. Nigel Hartagan can't stop himself from getting high and going back to the things that drive him further away from his family. The fact that his wife's close friend may also be her secret lover is enough to drive him to drown his sorrows in drugs and wild sex with random people. While Nigel goes through this destructive cycle, he wonders if he will ever escape his reckless lifestyle and transition into a proper family man. Set mostly in 1997 and written in the form of a journal, the highly addictive My Daze With The Dark Muse is the first installment in the Better To Burn Out series by D. M. Needom.
Comically sad and effortlessly immersive! D. M. Needom takes readers on a wild sexual and emotional rollercoaster ride in My Daze With The Dark Muse. I couldn't believe a woman actually wrote the book as it is a very realistic depiction of how men think, probably one of the best I've seen. The major issues the protagonist deals with include open relationships, jealousy, addiction, forgiveness, groupies, redemption, and temptation. Expect to see several curse words and explicit sex scenes, including BDSM. I was completely drawn into the story and couldn't stop reading until I reached the surprising end. I am excited I have read the first book in the Better To Burn Out Series, and I want the other books in the series like right now!
