Twenty years stolen. Christina was ripped from her life and forced to become someone else—Shanna. Every night locked away in a cellar, beaten down, shattered, and left to rot. Survival was never promised, and hope was a joke.
But it wasn’t until they tried to take her son that everything changed. For him, she’d fight. For him, she’d live. In her darkest moment, he became her light—a reason to claw her way out of the abyss.
Her abuser’s sudden death freed her body, but the chains in her mind still tighten, dragging her back into the hell she’s lived for two decades. Now, her battle isn’t over—it’s just begun. The world demands she prove herself, prove she’s sane enough to raise her own child.
The real problem? She loved the monster. A twisted, sick part of her fell for the very thing that destroyed her. How can she prove she’s fit to care for her son when her mind is still trapped in the twisted games of a psychopath?
Christina told her story—but the darkest secrets? She’s still keeping those.
