Hunter says he began relationship with late brother’s widow when she was at her ‘neediest,’ he at his ‘lowest’

In Hunter Biden’s forthcoming tell-all book, the president’s son describes how his relationship with his late brother’s widow had been borne out of desperation. 

But it wasn’t until Hunter finished a stint at Grace Grove rehab center in Sedona, Arizona that he and Hallie began a relationship, according to Hunter. "Feeling physically and mentally purged, I phoned Hallie and asked if she would come to Arizona to pick me up. I wanted her to accompany me on the trip back," Hunter wrote in "Beautiful Things." " I didn’t trust myself to make it home without backsliding -- without taking a detour into the pit I fell into on my way there."  "She flew out the next day. I was at my lowest, she was at her neediest, and we clung to each other with abandon. We talked at length about how much we had come to rely on each other, how our health and well-being seemed dependent on the love we’d grown to share," he continued.
