BETTER ALONE
A novel about rebirth, self-esteem, and the courage to start again
I'm ****** with Matteo when I realize it's over.
With this sentence begins the journey of Lisa Marchetti, a thirty-seven-year-old woman who thought she had everything under control: a brilliant career as an interior architect, a charming boyfriend, a seemingly perfect life.
But when Matteo leaves her with a sentence that sounds like a verdict-I don't feel that thing anymore-Lisa collapses.
And when she discovers he has been cheating on her for months with a woman who is now pregnant, she understands that the problem is not only Matteo. It's her. Or rather: it's the way she has always searched for love.
A STORY OF REAL TRANSFORMATION
Driven by desperation and anger, Lisa makes impulsive choices.
Some wrong. Some liberating. All necessary.
She begins therapy with Elena, a psychologist who asks her uncomfortable questions: Who is Lisa when she's not 'someone's girlfriend'?
And when the past returns with evidence that could destroy everything she has built, Lisa must make the hardest choice: let herself go-or protect herself?
A STORY THAT SPEAKS TO EVERY WOMAN
BETTER ALONE is not just a love story. It is a novel about:
Self-esteem
Toxic patterns
Female friendship
Therapy
Rebirth
Mature love
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
I finished this book in one night. I couldn't stop. I saw myself in Lisa, in her mistakes, in her fears. And in her strength. - * * * * *
This isn't the usual romantic story. It's raw, real, sometimes painful. And precisely because of that, it's beautiful. - * * * * *
After years of wrong relationships, this book helped me understand what I was doing wrong. Thank you. - * * * * *
Giulia and Lisa represent the kind of female friendship I want in my life. Powerful. - * * * * *
The psychology is perfectly integrated. It doesn't feel like a manual, but you learn so much. - * * * * *
PERFECT FOR YOU IF:
You've ever thought, Why do I always choose the wrong men?
You're leaving a toxic relationship and looking for hope
You want to understand your patterns without reading a psychology textbook
You love stories about strong women who fall and rise again
You believe female friendship is as powerful as romantic love
You're looking for a novel that makes you cry, laugh, and reflect
You want a true love story-the kind that comes from choice, not desperation
THE AUTHOR SAYS:
I wrote BETTER ALONE for all the women who have ever felt 'not enough.' For those who searched for validation in the wrong men. For those who believed that being alone meant failure.
This book is the answer I wish I had read at thirty. The answer that might save years of wrong relationships.
The answer is this: you are not alone. And above all-you don't have to be. But if you are, that's okay. In fact-it might be the best thing that ever happened to you.
