<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Dopamine is the strongest drug, and we can create it ourselves. But at what costs?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Iris Sutten is the girl we all dream of becoming; stunningly gorgeous, blonde, thin, rich and sought</em> after. It's how she's harvested over a half a million social media followers coveted by so many other bloggers. It's how she became the ringleader, and picture of what the others hoped to be.</p><p>Virginia Lane has been working for years to get the dream life portrayed by Iris, doing just about anything to receive the same online adoration as the golden girl. She's about to marry into money and has inched her way into Iris' blogger circle when things go horribly awry. Lines between what's real and what's illusion are constantly blurred in her life, with the stresses of her need to succeed weighing heavily in the form of anxiety and pills.</p><p>Meanwhile Nella Rose Miller has a life as perfect as her best friend Iris' as far as her followers are concerned. No one can see her harrowing life at home, her brutal husband, her unhappy title as mother of two, or her complicated relationship with her public bestie. Despite her own struggles, threatened by the up and coming Virginia...she wants her out.</p><p>These three influencers are caught in a net built by the dopamine rush that comes with every alert and ding. That is until one of them ends up dead.</p><p>Inspired by the author's true experiences in the social media blogging world as @byhilaryrose, Bodiford's first novel </em>explores the dark side of this enigmatic industry in which so many women are mysterious CEO. Ingenious mean girls, emphasis on appearances and wealth, and the constant need to display a picture-perfect life are realities most every blogger has faced. Under the Influence </em>brings light to how these pressures can affect mentally, not only the content creator, but also those who are watching. And they are always watching.</p>
