25: Ariel N. Anderson: Author of Under Your Scars

I spoke with Ariel Anderson, the author behind the viral romantic tragedy Under Your Scars. We talk about love, grief, and the cost of devotion in dark romance. Ariel opens up about the making of Elena and Christian's love story and why she chose a non HEA ending, and how staying true to the story became a lifeline through devastating loss. We discus mental health, self-harm, suicide, trauma, and recovery with care; Ariel also shares why she donates royalties to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and reads a moving love letter to anyone fighting to make it “one more day.” Ariel also shares about her lighter rom-com Venus: A Love Story (firefighter x nurse) and her Vampire duet: King of the Damned and Queen of the Wicked, and what’s next in her “tragedy era.” If you crave emotional, boundary-pushing romance with obsessive love, corruption, morally gray characters, and heartbreak that still heals, this is the episode for you.Connect with Love Letters and BooksTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lovelettersandbooks Threads: https://www.threads.com/@lovelettersandbooks Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovelettersandbooks/ Write me a love letter: [email protected] with Ariel N.
