Description

“Faith told her who to be. Love showed her who she was.”

                                                               

​

Amara Johnson has always known how to survive.
But when survival starts to feel like a cage, she dares to want something more.

After a shattering trauma, seventeen-year-old Amara finds herself in therapy, spiralling between silence and self-blame. Then she meets Magoa — a sharp-eyed photographer with a messy past and a softness Amara doesn’t know how to hold.

As love begins to feel less like danger and more like possibility, Amara must confront her faith, her fears, and the belief that she’s too broken to be loved.

Chaos Finding Form is a raw, intimate, and unflinchingly honest story about survival, self-discovery, and the kind of love that doesn’t fix you—but reminds you you’re worth fixing for. Perfect for readers who like their romance tangled with real-life heartache, messy healing, and quiet, powerful hope.

Raw, tender, and unflinchingly honest, Chaos Finding Form is a coming-of-age story that stresses the importance of learning to trust oneself through love, not in place of it.

Trudy-Ann Smith
is a writer of contemporary fiction who believes in the quiet power of human connection, unresolved questions, and the beauty of becoming. Her debut novel explores the messiness of identity, family, and first love—things she’s been trying to figure out herself, one chapter at a time.
 
When she’s not writing, Trudy-Ann can usually be found re-watching her favourite movies (the kind where someone runs through an airport or dramatically yells “wait!”), eavesdropping in cafés under the guise of working, or searching for meaning in unexpected places.
 
She studied Architecture at university, which technically qualifies her to design buildings but mostly taught her how to pull all-nighters, survive on tea and hope, and sketch things that only occasionally make structural sense. It was somewhere between 2 a.m. Pinterest rabbit holes and napkin doodles that she started turning fragments of late-night thoughts into full-length stories. Architecture gave her a love of structure; fiction gave her the freedom to knock a few emotional walls down.
