Publisher's Synopsis
"Breaking The Cycle" follows the turbulent journey of China, a young woman robbed of her innocence and thrust into a world that offered no refuge. From an early age, China's life was marked by betrayal, trauma, and emotional devastation, shaping her path in ways she could never have imagined. The shadows of her childhood left her grappling with broken trust, loneliness, and an insatiable need for escape. Her relationships, especially with her sister Nivea, were strained by a history of secrets, lies, and unresolved pain. With sex as her temporary reprieve, China sought solace in dangerous places, only to find herself further trapped in the cycle of generational trauma that had long plagued her family.
In a world where family bonds are fragile and emotional wounds run deep, China is forced to confront the darkest parts of herself. Her choices have created rifts in her relationships, but the desire for healing and reconciliation is stronger than ever. While she hopes for peace, the weight of her past and the family dynamics keep pulling her back into old patterns of pain. Nivea, haunted by her own pain and betrayal, struggles to forgive China, even as they share the bond of motherhood and a complicated love that refuses to die.
As the story unfolds, China begins to reclaim her voice. She chooses to confront her trauma, determined to break free from the cycles that have defined her life. Writing becomes her salvation, allowing her to process the emotions she's buried for so long. Through therapy and the power of vulnerability, China embarks on a journey of self-discovery, unraveling the layers of hurt and shame that have clouded her sense of self. She learns that healing is not just about overcoming the past, but about embracing her worth and forging a new path for herself and her children.Breaking The Cycle is a raw, emotional exploration of survival, identity, and the human capacity for healing. It's a story of how generational trauma can leave scars that run deep, but it's also a testament to the strength of the human spirit. China's journey is one of heartbreak, resilience, and transformation as she seeks not only to heal herself but to create a better life for her children. As the shadows of her past loom large, China must decide if she will let them consume her or if she will rise above them to find light, love, and freedom.
In this deeply personal narrative, readers will find themselves drawn into China's world, a world where survival often means making impossible choices, where family can be both a source of pain and redemption, and where healing is a slow and painful, yet ultimately liberating, process. For anyone who has ever felt trapped by their past or struggled to find their way out of the darkness, "Breaking The Cycle" offers hope, resilience, and the reminder that, no matter how deep the wounds, there is always a way to rise above.
