Ray wants the perfect body.
But how far is too far?
When his training turns extreme, Ray is pulled into a dark gym culture that promises results at any cost. As his body changes, so does his mind. Watching from the sidelines is his girlfriend Temi, a journalist who expresses concern but has her own secret agendas.
Hunger Pains is a gripping story about obsession, control, and what happens when self-improvement becomes self-destruction.
This book considers difficult themes relating to body image obsession and suicide, calorie control and counting and sexual content.
