Unbroken: Healing from Narcissistic Abuse and Reclaiming Me - Hardcover

by Tina R. Paone (Author), Jennifer S. Gabriel (Editor)

2026 WINNER - INTERNATIONAL IMPACT BOOK AWARD

This book is for anyone who has ever questioned their own reality, struggled to name what happened to them, or wondered if healing was truly possible.

In this raw and courageous memoir, Tina Paone traces her journey through childhood sexual abuse, emotional neglect, and the enduring impact of narcissistic control that followed her into a damaging marriage. When she finally found the strength to leave, co-parenting unveiled yet another layer of abuse. With clarity, compassion, and unflinching honesty, she reveals how trauma reshapes identity, relationships, and self-worth.

Unbroken is about remembering who existed before the breaking-and choosing to build from that truth. Blending lived experience with the insight of a seasoned therapist, this story illuminates the brave and often painful work of untangling conditioning from reality. Through grief, awakening, and radical acceptance, it reveals that healing is not about forgetting the past, but about finally seeing it clearly.
