Heartsick

Three true stories of heartbreak and healing that will resonate with anyone who has loved and lost.In Heartsick, Jessie Stephens follows the stories of Ana, Patrick, and Claire as they navigate the painful aftermath of a major heartbreak. Through their experiences, Stephens captures the universal yet deeply personal nature of emotional pain.I wrote this book for the person who doesn't want to be told that this too shall pass. Not yet. Who wants to sit with it. And see it for what it is. Who wants to know they're not alone. That their pain is at once unique and universal. Belonging to them and everyone.Born from hours waiting for messages that never came and years of almost-relationships, Heartsick delves into the feeling of being fundamentally unlovable. By weaving together three true stories, Stephens offers a relatable, addictive, and powerfully human exploration of heartbreak and the ultimate healing power of storytelling.In the solitude that reading a book demands, one is forced to reflect on one's own life. After all, every time we explore others, we're mostly just exploring ourselves.These are the stories of Ana, Patrick, and Claire. But within them, readers will find echoes of their own experiences with love, loss, and the journey to healing and growth.
