Poetic snapshots from inside an emotionally abusive marriage.  My marriage.  We were married 23 years by the time the divorce was final.  During the marriage, I didn't realize how far I had been beaten down. I had no hope.  After I left, I started to look back and see my slow decline at the hands of my narcissistic (now-ex) husband.  I wrote this partly to heal from the abuse, and in the hopes that my experiences might help another.

The last two poems are positive in nature.  I couldn't end this book on such a negative note.  There is hope an the last two poems show that, I hope.

52 parts Complete

Forced into an engagement with a man she doesn't love, Reyna must ignore her bond with her father's general in order to avoid a war and save her throne. ***** As the first female heir to one of the great Northern Kingdoms, Reyna panics when her claim to the throne is threatened by the discovery that her father's general is her soulbound partner. She forces herself to ignore their connection, determined to be more than a general's wife, only for her father to manipulate her into a political engagement with a man she could never love. So to forge her own path forward, keep her throne, and confront her feelings for the general who owns her heart, Reyna must find a way to refuse this arranged marriage without destroying her kingdom in the process.
