Emotionally raw, beautifully written, and deeply affecting, Hearts of Glass is an unforgettable work of contemporary Australian fiction that explores love, mental health, and the fragile boundaries between hope and self-destruction. For readers of Colleen Hoover, Sally Rooney, and Kathleen Glasgow, this haunting debut will linger long after the final page.
Cassie is searching for something she can't name - a way out of the chaos in her mind, and the loneliness she can't shake.
By day, she's trapped in a job she despises at her father's accounting firm, and by night, she numbs herself with drugs, alcohol, and the kind of company that leaves her emptier than before. Then she meets Patrick, an apprentice carpenter with a golden smile and surfer-boy charm, and suddenly she sees a glimmer of another life - one filled with hope, safety, and love.
Convinced Patrick is the key to her elusive happiness, Cassie spirals between highs and lows as she fights to keep from falling apart. Meanwhile, Patrick's head is spinning. He can't get a read on Cassie, and struggles to hold on through the turbulence.
Their romance burns bright and fast - until Cassie's careful façade begins to fracture.
Raw and addictive, Hearts of Glass is a story of love, obsession and resilience.
'Like a car crash you can't look away from, this emotionally gripping story offers a window into the mind of mental illness. A fearless debut that cuts straight to the heart.'
