Shattered Hearts: Tales of Domestic Abuse is a collection of four stories. They depict domestic abuse and its aftermath from the point of view of a survivor, delving into topics like cycles of abuse, finding the courage to leave, and dealing with complex trauma.
"The Storm Cycle", first published in The Avalon Literary Review, is a short story about the cycles of domestic abuse, told through the author's sensory experiences.
"Perfect Isn't Good Enough" is a retelling of a day in the life of a woman experiencing domestic abuse, as she realizes nothing she ever does will be enough to keep her abuser happy.
"The Photograph" is the story of finding your spark after letting someone dim your light. In this story, we see the survivor reflect on the person she was before the abuse and try to find the strength to save herself and her daughter from their current fate.
"A Night in Hell" is a story about the survivor's time in her own personal hell. It is a reflection on complex trauma, and how abuse stays with you even after you leave.
