I thought I had it all-
A perfect fiancé. A baby on the way. A future filled with love and promise.

But life has a cruel way of revealing its true colors.

At just twenty-one, I believed I had escaped the shadows of my past. My family was complicated-dysfunctional at best, damaging at worst-but I loved them anyway. I told myself I was different. Safe. Chosen. But I was wrong.

What followed was a shattering revelation that changed everything I thought I knew about love, trust, and the people closest to me. Reality didn't just whisper in my ear-it screamed. And in the chaos, I discovered a truth I never saw coming.

My name is Kristine Daniels.
And this... is the story of how everything I believed in came undone-and how I fought to piece my life back together.

Dani Trauma has a way of reshaping you. I lost pieces of myself I wasn't sure I could ever get back - the bright spark of who I once was replaced by a duller version that only knew how to survive. Trust felt like a distant memory, and life, instead of something to be lived, became something to endure. But then, against all odds, I found myself falling for my boss - literally. Beneath his grumpy exterior was a man I couldn't quite figure out, and slowly, the embers of my spirit began to reignite. Just as I thought I could finally begin living again, my past resurfaced, threatening to tear apart everything I had worked so hard to rebuild. Now, I stand at a crossroads. Will I finally grasp the chance for a happily-ever-after, or will the flames of my past consume me once more? Dean In a world steeped in high expectations and cloaked in distrust, I rose to become a highly successful CEO. Through the years, I quickly learned that most interactions were transactional, often driven by a need for something from me. When I dared to embrace love, it was a revelation wrapped in a painful lesson: love exposes you to vulnerability, making you susceptible to manipulation. That was precisely the fate I encountered, leading me to vow never to find myself in that position again. Years later, fate thrusts me into a similar predicament. My new assistant stumbled into my life - and into my heart - when I least expected it. She was hiding just as much as I was, but with every conversation, every smile, every spark of her defiant spirit, she dismantled the walls I'd spent years building around myself. Now, I stand at another crossroads. Do I risk everything I've tirelessly worked for, betting on the possibility of a happily-ever-after? Or do I retreat, knowing all too well the pain that can follow love's gamble?

Bliss. Delight. Contentment. Euphoria. Elation. Joy. Glee. Felicity. Jubilation. These are all words synonymous to the word happiness. But what is true happiness? Happiness is that feeling of butterflies fluttering around in your chest, trying to break out. Happiness is that invisible fluid rushing in your veins, making you shiver in the most wonderful way. Happiness is the force that pulls your cheeks up into the widest smile and makes your eyes twinkle. Happiness makes you light-headed and giddy, it is in fact like alcohol. Well then, I am utterly and completely drunk. When you're happy, everything feels amazing. Even small insignificant things like getting up in the morning. The golden hue of sunlight streaming in through the curtains feels like a soft caress from the hand of a lover. The birds seem to chirp sweetly outside, a melody to which the leaves sway as if mesmerised by their music. The curtains tango with the wind beautifully. Every little thing seems perfect. And that's a word I'd use to describe my life. Perfect. To give you a little introduction about me, let me start by explaining the most important aspects of my life. I have a loving family. There's my sarcastic, yet surprisingly sweet brother, my beautiful mother (both in looks and spirit) and my stern, yet humorous father. I have the best best friend, Charlotte and I have an amazing boyfriend, Theo. I'm quite beautiful and popular too which I'm not saying to brag, I'm just stating the truth. So that is my life. The life of Tia-Jade Garcia. *** What she didn't know was that every high has a low and that the higher you rise, the lower you fall and the more painful that fall is. Follow her story as she loses everybody she ever cared for and thereby her happiness. See her fight all of her demons by herself. Watch her fall in love...with herself because the only person's love you'll always need is yours. This is her self-love story.
