Synopsis
Six wasn’t the hero I needed.
But he was the man I wanted.
And it was my selfish craving, the desire to own him, that would be our undoing.
No one tells you that love is a disease. An infection that tears your heart apart, leaving you half the person you were before. A malady that leaves open wounds. An invisible disorder tracing scars in the places you couldn’t see if you weren’t looking for them.
I was sick, but love didn’t heal me.
Instead, it festered in my marrow, and drove me to unforgivable mistakes.
Six was my first mistake, but he wouldn't be the last.

Synopsis
Six was always there, even when I didn’t want him.
But he couldn’t hold me together, and I couldn’t be his penance.
Loss is a phantom limb. No one can see it, but the ache torments you in the night, distracts you during the day, and leaves you fragmented. I’m half a heart, half a soul, and nothing could cure the pieces he’d left behind.
Losing him was safer than loving him. Because the love that kept us coming back again and again was nothing short of madness.
But then, isn't mad love the most honest?

About the Author
Whitney Barbetti is really, truly awful at writing in the third person, so we're just going to change this bio up a bit and write it as first person.
I am married with two boys. When I'm not changing diapers or cutting food into tiny bites, I escape to Starbucks for hours. My blood pressure actually drops the moment I walk in, hear the baristas call my name, and inhale the aroma of coffee beans. And I don't even like coffee.
I love music and have a playlist for everything. Queen is my very favorite.
I like watching creepy shows when I am home alone but then I instantly regret them once my mind starts breeding irrational fears. I try to channel my fears into my books as a way to cope.
I have about 20 bacon things in my fridge.

Well my goodness what an emotional journey Six Feet Under took me on. This is not a glitter and sparkly rainbows story. It’s one that gives you a wounded young lady who is dealing with mental illness.
Mira has heard voices in her head since a young child. Voices that tell her to do things that you and I know are not what we should do. But to Mira, those voices give her freedom.
Growing older, she found that along with the voices, now you add cocaine and pills to the mix and you get even more freedom…
Now add in self harming and Mira is flying high!!!
One step away from total self-destruction, Six walks into her life. He’s a very mysterious man who doesn’t open up to anyone. What Mira feels when she is around him is something she has never felt before. The voices are telling her it won’t work. The drugs are telling her to be free. The cutting allows all self-doubt to escape.
Six is a very patient man though. He has seen Mira at her worse times, has helped her to feel for others. But something is telling Mira that Six has picked her as a charity case. One that maybe he can save.
This is a very long book!!! One that sucked me in and had me suffering right along with Mira. Was a story that although is fiction, made me understand more about people with a mental illness. I appreciate authors who write about such things and mention about how people who are suffering can get help.
With that being said, I need book two….like stat!!! That ending… **Gasp**
