Overview

I didn't understand that you could be abandoned without ever being told you were left. Until it happened to me. ""The most dangerous kind of ending doesn't sound like a bomb. It sounds like silence."" Maya is twenty-five, intense, and waiting for her life to start. When she meets Jonah, a brooding documentary editor in a late-night café, she thinks she has found her sanctuary. Their connection is electric, intellectual, and physically consuming. For two years, Maya builds her entire world around him. She becomes his calm. She becomes his fortress. But Jonah is a man who romanticizes damage, and perfection bores him. It starts with a text message that goes unanswered. Then a missed dinner. Then a request for ""space"" to work on his mental health. Maya waits, convinced that her patience is proof of her love. She lives on breadcrumbs, decoding his silence, defending his absence, and slowly erasing herself to fit into the small space he has left for her. Until the lights go out. During a city-wide blackout, a single phone call shatters the illusion. Jonah isn't alone in the dark. And Maya isn't the girlfriend waiting for him to come home-she's the backup plan he forgot to discard. The Silence Of A Burning House is a devastating, explicit, and visceral exploration of modern heartbreak. It is a story about the violence of soft ghosting, the addiction of toxic relationships, and the agonizing reality of being replaced while you are still in love. Tropes & Themes: Cheating & Infidelity Ghosting & Gaslighting Toxic Relationship & Narcissism Intense Chemistry & Spice Emotional Destruction & Healing The ""Nice Guy"" Villain Perfect for readers who want to feel everything. If you loved books that shattered your heart and pieced it back together, this novella will stay with you long after the final page.
