About The Book

Splintered Innocence: Survival

Splintered Innocence: Survival follows the turbulent life of Lucas—a man shaped by childhood trauma, addiction, and a desperate longing to be loved. From being rejected by the Navy due to high blood pressure to navigating fatherhood, financial hardship, and emotional disconnect, Lucas fights to keep his family from falling apart while battling his own demons.

His wife, Sophia, a young mother with dreams of stability, finds herself constantly cleaning up the messes left behind by Lucas’s impulsivity and addiction. As she juggles survival, motherhood, and mistrust, Sophia becomes the emotional anchor in a story that teeters on the edge of collapse.

Together, they raise their daughter Elizabeth, a wide-eyed and hopeful child whose innocence stands in stark contrast to the chaos of her parents’ lives—and baby Oliver, whose birth both deepens the family’s connection and highlights its cracks.

Add to the mix Clarissa, a charismatic woman who inserts herself into their lives under the guise of friendship but whose intentions may be far from innocent. As secrets unravel and suspicions grow, the tension reaches a boiling point.
