Hightide's Secrets

Book excerpt: This is a story about my life and surviving too much drinking, drugs and pushing the limits. I chose this life as it was an option that appealed to me. I had a chance to take the Jr. Varsity coaches advice and concentrate on playing basketball and making the team. But on the walk home that night I was thinking about going partying with all my friends. And that's what I did and have enjoyed my life but think of what my life would be like and what I may have accomplished if I was thinking about practicing basketball on the way home and not going out to party. I hope I can make a difference in people's lives by showing them that Hightide's way is not the best option. You will see how unbelievably lucky I have been not to be dead or in serious trouble. Please do not try any of these events as I have tried them for you and can tell you they are not worth it, thanks for reading, Michael Peter Carvalho. Five percent of what I make on this book will go to charities to help children to honor my parents Dennis and Gladys Mae Hawley Carvalho
