Hidden Heartbreak follows the progression of a doomed relationship from blissful beginning to devastating end, capturing the all-encompassing and blinding euphoria of love as well as the crushing doubt and disappointment that accompany a breakup. In comics that are relatable, vulnerable, and often funny, as well as interactive pieces that invite readers to process their own heartbreak, Emma Lee charts a path forward, reminding us that the heart is a resilient thing.

"Lee started on [Instagram] in February 2017 looking for an outlet for her artwork about the pain of a breakup, with no intention of turning it into a book. 'I simply wanted a space to be able to express myself, be creative and work through some emotions,' Lee told Forbes.com." (Forbes)
