About the Book
The One Who Stayed is not just a novel—it’s a mirror.
It’s the story of a woman who gave everything for love, stayed far too long in a relationship that drained her spirit, and ultimately made the hardest, most life-changing choice: to choose herself.
Told with raw honesty and cinematic depth, it’s a fictional journey born from truths too many women live but rarely speak out loud—heartbreak, motherhood, cultural expectations, self-worth, and the sacred act of starting over.
This is for the woman who once smiled through the ache, who played small to keep the peace, and who is now ready to reclaim her voice.
Why It Resonates
For women—especially Latinas balancing cultural traditions with personal dreams—The One Who Stayed speaks to the silent battles. The moments when you know the life you’ve been living is not the life you’re meant for.
Sandra Mabel Guzman is more than a first-time author—she’s a Latina mother of three, Eaton Fire survivor, and voice for women in their second chapter of life. Her lived experience fuels a narrative that is universal, relatable, and deeply visual.
Her story carries the emotional weight and human truth that film and television audiences connect to instantly. At its core, The One Who Stayed is an unapologetic declaration: You deserve better.
Why Media & Film Should Pay Attention
This novel is ready-made for adaptation—its themes are timeless, its imagery is vivid, and its emotional beats hit hard. From the quiet devastation of a love gone cold to the electrifying relief of freedom, it’s a journey that begs to be seen on screen.
Sandra’s own backstory—overcoming personal heartbreak, balancing motherhood, surviving a disaster, and reclaiming her own narrative—mirrors her heroine’s in a way that would make any press feature, documentary segment, or adaptation pitch impossible to ignore.
Invitation
I’d be honored to send you a press copy of The One Who Stayed for consideration. Whether you want to review it, feature it, or explore adaptation potential, this is a story that will stay with you—and your audience—long after the last page.
