Summary
Book 1 of the Unmasked Series
Written and narrated by Leah Rendall
"When I doubted everything, she never did. Her trust became the bridge between my chaos and my calm."
For most of my life, I believed I was the problem.
I never knew I was masking.
I thought if I tried harder... became calmer... stopped drinking... somehow became "normal"... life would finally make sense.
Then I got sober.
For the first time, I began to understand that most people weren't trying to hurt me. They were doing the best they could with what they knew.
Then came my late diagnosis.
In a single moment, everything finally made sense...
...and everything I believed about myself fell apart.
This wasn't something I could heal.
This wasn't something I could outgrow.
This wasn't a chapter that would end.
This was me.
For the rest of my life.
Who the hell was I?
If the mask wasn't me...
Then who had I been for forty-four years?
Looking back, I realised there had always been one exception.
Earn had slipped past every wall I'd ever built.=
She was the only soul I'd ever truly let love me, and the only one I'd ever trusted enough to love back.
She never asked me to explain myself.
She never asked me to become someone else.
She simply loved me.
Only after my diagnosis did I realise something that still breaks my heart.
Earn had never met the mask.
She had known the real me all along.
Eight months later...
She was gone.
The only soul who had ever truly known me was no longer here.
I didn't just grieve Earn.
I grieved the life I thought I was going to have.
I grieved the years I'd spent believing I was broken.
I grieved the person I thought I was.
And I grieved the only witness to the woman I was only just beginning to meet.
Unmasked & Unfiltered isn't a story with neat answers.
It's the sound of a life being dismantled...
...and the quiet beginning of building it again.
This is where my unmasking begins.
This is where Earn's legacy lives on.
