In this thriller, Rohan Goodlett grows up in a wholesome traditional family, where he is sheltered from the streets. When he gets to high school, it doesn’t take long before his secret insatiable desire to dance on the dark side becomes his reality. After graduating from Howard University, he gives Corporate America a try. After getting a bad shake at the Marriott, he is forced to turn in his letter of resignation before he gets terminated. In the following months, he finds a job doing what he loves most—barbering. It’s a dream job, but the temptation to get back into the hustle game soon overcomes him. During that next year, he spirals downward, deeper and deeper than he ever has before. When his actions lead him into jails and mental institutions, he quickly discovers that when you’re behind the wall, “there ain’t no love,” especially when you have been branded with the stigma of being mentally ill. In this story of love, losses, and mental illness, Rohan, a gambler, lays all his cards on the table when he finds himself believing murder is the only way out of a vicious cycle of lies and betrayal. As time grows nearer to his release, he finds himself struggling to decide if he will go back to being best friends with the people who hurt him the most or if life will take him down a different road. It is then that he finds himself asking the age long question “Who can I run to when I need love?”

Religion is a device used to take the place of spirituality. If slavery didn't exist, we'd never know anything about religion. Religion gave us the act of calling on a "God" publicly through the pain and agony of being abused. While the oppressor had us shackled and bound, we were mentally/ physically beaten into "Hell" verbally calling upon the source. The source didn't have to appear because "IT" has always been there WITHIN. All we had to do was STAND UP!! Sad to say, "The FEAR still resides within our minds to this very day." STOP calling upon what can't exist outside of ourselves!! The power of change begins in the minds of YOURSELVES!! - Lamont Burno

In Crackheads Need Love Too, author Deidra Lee Thompson helps you understand that anyone struggling with addiction has deeper rooted issues, hurts, and past experiences that have caused them to turn to the addiction as a source of comfort.

Offering a Christian perspective on addiction, Crackheads Need Love Too shares both a personal story and extends hope to others who are experiencing similar situations.
