New book sheds light destructive effects of gambling addiction on individuals and their families
MELBOURNE, Australia, Dec. 5, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Earlier this year, Kelly Delaney published her debut book titled "A Game of Chance," which chronicled her inspiring journey of finding hope after trauma. This November, the author is back with the continuing story of their family with the release of "A Roll of the Dice (Luke's Story)" (published by Balboa Press AU).
Book 2 gives readers an idea of the desperate lengths Luke went to in order to find money to fund his gambling addiction. Money was everything to Luke — and he could never envision a life where he would ever have enough of it. In this book, Delaney imagines what life must have been like for her former husband as he battled his demons, which were driven by his need to achieve financial success.
"This story is real, raw and true. It shows human nature at its most desperate," the author states. I hope readers can take away the message that gambling can destroy relationships, futures, trust and safety. That it can destroy the pure existence of people."
"A Roll of the Dice (Luke's Story)" brings awareness to the devastating consequences of gambling addiction for both individuals and their loved ones. It is Delaney's hope that Luke's story will also serve as a lesson to others on how to avoid problems in the first place.
