About Burnt Letters
What if the love you craved became the fire that almost destroyed you?
Burnt Letters is a searing, poetic memoir from Christina—a woman who thought she was stepping into a fresh start, only to find herself ensnared in a toxic web of love-bombing, manipulation, and emotional abuse at the hands of Frank, a man whose charm masked a darker truth.
Told through haunting unsent letters and fragmented memories, this raw narrative exposes the invisible wounds left by childhood trauma and the suffocating grip of toxic love. It’s a journey through whispered doubts, shattered illusions, and the relentless fight to reclaim a silenced voice.
Christina’s story unflinchingly reveals the devastating power of gaslighting and shame to erode identity—and the fierce, messy, unyielding process of rising from the ashes. Along the way, trusted friends and a relentless therapist light the path toward self-discovery and healing, while the inner child once buried beneath layers of pain slowly finds her way back to life.
Burnt Letters isn’t about neat endings or quick fixes. It’s battlefield poetry for anyone who has ever felt invisible, broken, or trapped—and for those ready to claim their power and rewrite their story.
If you’ve ever whispered, “Why didn’t she just leave?”—this book offers no excuses. It offers a mirror. A reckoning. A hand reaching out from the dark, inviting you to feel the fire—and rise.
Because some stories aren’t just told—they burn.
Perfect for survivors of emotional abuse, trauma-informed clinicians, and anyone ready to face the raw, unfiltered truth about love, loss, and healing.

You didn’t buy Burnt Letters because you needed another self-help book.
You bought it because something inside you still whispers, “Was it really that bad?”
Or maybe that voice has gone quiet—and you’re just starting to find your way back to it.
Christina Ditchkofsky, RN, MSN, is a trauma-informed author, domestic violence survivor, and master’s-prepared registered nurse who writes for the woman still stuck in survival mode—and the one who’s clawing her way out.
She began right where you are: sitting in therapy, reading everything she could find, journaling through the pain… and still repeating the same toxic patterns.
Until she discovered something no course, credential, or clinical training had ever taught her:
No one else is coming to save you—but that doesn’t mean you’re alone.
Christina blends the raw truth of lived experience with clinical insight, poetic rebellion, and a fierce belief that healing is possible—even when your past feels like a life sentence.
She’s here to help you reclaim your voice, rewrite your story, and build something braver in the ashes.
Because your story isn’t over.
And your voice doesn’t have to whisper anymore.
