Unearthly Passion: A novel for New Adults (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781916121300)

Unwanted and unloved as a child, Natalie Parsons longs to escape from the moral restraints of her foster family and embark on a life of boozing and floozing at Edinburgh University.

Her first-year geophysics course finds her rebelling against the idea that the universe, like herself, originated as a meaningless accident. Helped and hindered by good and bad friends, Natalie drifts ever deeper into drink, debt and depravity until she hits a rock that sinks her in a life-threatening depression. Rescue comes through a student who claims to know God, producing a dilemma that only a miracle can solve.

Terrible T-shirts, cheeky chat-up lines and a demonic double bed spice an emotional roller coaster of university life that ends in love when Natalie finally discovers who she is.
