Love and security were two missing pieces of his childhood, and Richard wanted and needed them more than anything. But those words would haunt him for nearly forty years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Raised in the \"City that Care Forgot,\" and in an environment which taught less than it cared, Richard spent his formative years helping and supporting others-friends, neighbors, and an English teacher.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e After a student placed a condom box on the teacher's desk, Richard felt compelled to help her. He was an ordinary freshman attempting an extraordinary feat, but she was no ordinary person. A former college homecoming queen, she was smart, beautiful, and had a passion for literature-and one student. She had taken her marriage vows, her degree, and her knowledge to an all-male Catholic school located one mile south of the Mississippi River, where the Big Muddy runs west until it bends north into the setting sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e What began as platonic progressed into a period in which she weaved him into a web of sex, lies, and broken promises. After she had ended the relationship, Richard spiraled down a destructive path, until he crossed the bridge onto the road of twelve-step recovery. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Honest, painful, and often funny, \u003cem\u003ePay Dirt\u003c\/em\u003e is a beautifully written memoir that tells a story of lost innocence, sexual abuse, addiction, perseverance, and ultimately redemption.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 210\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.48 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 01, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47186585649401,"sku":"9781636923994","price":18.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/xsxfprwW0V9781636923994.webp?v=1767841802","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/pay-dirt-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
