What We Did To Save Her
A Novel by Laura Vomvos
How far would you go to save your child?
Sophia was everything they had to protect.
When their teenage daughter falls in love with a quiet, seemingly gentle boy, Lea and Chris Grace do what any parents would do — they ask questions, set boundaries, and trust that love will work itself out.
But love isn’t always what it seems.
As unsettling inconsistencies begin to surface, what starts as ordinary teenage secrecy slowly reveals something far more dangerous. The boy Sophia loves isn’t just hiding the truth — he’s creating an entire world built on lies. And the deeper Sophia is drawn in, the more terrifying those lies become.
When obsession turns violent and the system meant to protect them fails, Lea and Chris are forced into an unthinkable position.
To save their daughter, they must make a choice no parent ever wants to face.
Inspired loosely by real events, What We Did to Save Her is a gripping psychological thriller about deception, control, and the devastating decisions parents make when instinct, law, and love collide.
Some dangers don’t announce themselves.
They walk through the front door — and call it love.
Invisible
How It Feels When The Kids Grow Up
by Laura Vomvos
The kids grow up. Life moves forward. And somehow, you begin to feel less needed, less noticed — and sometimes invisible.
This book is for the woman who has given deeply, loved fiercely, and carried a family for years… and now finds herself wondering where she fits. It’s for the mother who understands that her children building full lives of their own is a good thing — and still feels the ache of what’s changed.
Invisible — Or At Least It Feels That Way When the Kids Grow Up is not about blame, fixing anyone, or having it all figured out. It’s about naming the feelings so many women carry quietly but rarely say out loud. The quiet grief. The comparison. The effort to stay connected. The realization that being needed isn’t the same as being seen.
Written with honesty, warmth, and compassion, this book gently reminds you:
You’re not imagining what you feel
You’re not alone in this season
And you still matter — deeply — beyond what you do for others
If you’ve ever felt overlooked in a life you once held together, this book is for you.
Breathing Between The Lines
by Laura Vomvos
There comes a quiet season in life when everything feels different.
Your children are grown or growing, finding their own paths. Your parents may need you in new and unexpected ways. And somewhere in between, you may find yourself asking who you are now — and whether you’re still doing enough.
Breathing Between the Lines is a gentle companion for women navigating this in-between season. With honesty, compassion, and quiet wisdom, Laura Vomvos reflects on the emotional landscape of caring, letting go, and learning to soften without losing yourself.
These pages speak to the woman who has spent years showing up for others — as a mother, a daughter, a partner, a caregiver — and is now learning how to breathe again in the spaces life leaves behind.
Through reflections on identity, love, responsibility, and resilience, this book offers reassurance that:
• You are not behind
• You are not failing
• You are not alone
This is not a book of instructions or answers. It is an invitation to pause. To reflect. To find meaning in the quiet work of loving across generations.
A gentle reminder that even in transition, even in uncertainty, you are still becoming — and that becoming can be beautiful. You are not alone.
