Love Held in Chains

By Arya Skyee

This is not a typical love story.
It is a story about what love can become when trauma disguises itself as devotion.

In Love Held in Chains, Aurora falls into a romance that feels destined intense, consuming, and deeply intimate. But beneath the passion lies something harder to name.

As emotional manipulation and subtle control take root, Aurora begins to question her own reality. The bond keeps pulling her back. The confusion keeps her quiet.

Told through the lens of lived experience, this novel offers a deeply personal look at trauma bonding, coercive control, and the psychological toll of domestic abuse without romanticizing it.

A powerful, unflinching exploration of survival, awakening, and reclaiming the self.
