Book Description:
Prudence Aldrich is a sex addict. Five weeks ago, she checked into the Serenity Hills rehab center to prevent that addiction from ruining every important relationship in her life. Now Prue must face the trail of destruction she left behind, including mending the broken bond with her teenage son, finalizing the divorce from her husband, Nick, and using a newly learned set of skills to ward off her insatiable cravings for male attention-a compulsion that puts her friendship with lifelong pal Lily to the test.
Adding ever further complications to the hurdles in her path is the arrival into town of Alistair Prescott, her in-rehab romantic obsession, and the one person in the world most capable of throwing Prue off her recovery. Meanwhile, Serenity Hills counselor Mike Sullivan is undergoing a crisis of his own-one that will drive him to the rediscovery of a lifelong passion . . . and causing him to cross paths again with Prue, his former patient.
A Dress the Color of the Moon tracks the rocky and sometimes disastrous path to recovery-a recovery that will require Prudence and her friends to face down the demons of their pasts while learning to accept the fearful uncertainty that comes with living life on your own two feet.

My Review:
A Dress the Color of the Moon is the second installment from The Dress series written by the talented author, Jennifer Irwin. This is the first experience I have had reading anything by this author. Since I have not had the chance to read her first book from her The Dress series, A Dress the Color of the Sky, I believe this one can be read as a stand alone. I thought it was a good book to read. It tells the story of addictions, the struggles of recovery and learning to face the affects of addictions on those around. I believe Prudence’s fight against a relapse was one that many could relate to. I admired her courage as she tries to get away from the doubt and anxiety she experiences. I wanted to keep reading to see how she would be able to navigate the complications she endures. I loved it was a pretty good read.
I am giving A Dress the Color of the Moon four and a half stars. I recommend it for readers and fans of contemporary fiction will want to give this one a try. I am sure they will like it as much as me. I am interested in reading more by Jennifer Irwin in the future. I would love to see if she releases another installment from her The Dress series.
I received copy of A Dress the Color of the Moon from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
