Netherlands, Germany, and now the UK. These experiences have given
her a deep appreciation for different cultures and a sense of being a true

Writing is her way of making sense of things—a space to explore the
complexities of identity and belonging. During the pandemic, she redis-

This novel is very close to my heart. It’s taken three years of living with these characters, pushing through doubt, rejection, and rounds of re-writing. Now that it’s finally here, it’s no longer just mine. It’s yours too.

“What’s so wrong in seeking happiness? We may be fractured, sure, but that doesn’t mean we can’t piece ourselves back together.”
Jessica Lascar, We May Be Fractured

“L'anima gemella non esiste. E forse è anche peggio. Se l'anima gemella esistesse, allora potresti incolpare il destino nel caso in cui le cose non funzionassero. Nel nostro caso, invece, possiamo solo dare la colpa alle scelte che abbiamo fatto. Perché io ho scelto lui e lui ha scelto me.”
