Burnt Letters is a raw, unfiltered memoir of survival, trauma, and healing told through the lens of a woman who has been shattered — and slowly, painfully, begins to put herself back together.
After enduring two failed marriages, Christina finds herself trapped in a relationship that starts with butterflies and ends with a gun to her temple. What unfolds is not just a cautionary tale of narcissistic abuse and manipulation, but a deep, personal reckoning with the patterns that led her there — childhood trauma, complex PTSD, codependency, and the internalized belief that love must hurt to be real.
Told in deeply personal, journal-like chapters, Burnt Letters navigates Christina’s descent into — and escape from — a relationship that nearly destroys her. Along the way, she explores her upbringing, the generational wounds that shaped her, and the quiet, powerful act of reclaiming her own voice through therapy, journaling, and unflinching honesty.
This is not a redemption arc tied up in a bow. It’s a series of burnt letters to the past — some symbolic, some literal — as she finds the courage to finally say no more.

Why Burnt Letters Matters
This book is for every woman who’s ever whispered, “How do I leave?”
It’s for the survivor still questioning whether it was abuse.
It’s for the ones who smile at work but scream in silence at home.
And it’s a call to end the silence — because silence only protects the abuser. $0.99 on Kindle.
