Roundabout Love

"So, can you come and get your stuff, or do you want me to ship it to you . . . somewhere?" The broken lyrics in my mind played on repeat. I couldn't even fumble my way through a logical sequence of words or phrases-many of which had saved me in the past. I went with the old stand-by: "I love you." The moment the last syllable was uttered, the scorn on her face vanished and melted into pity. I had lost love once more, and I didn't know if I would ever recover. Brian "Bezo" Palazzo had nothing left in his life, except the hope that he would find himself in a sleepy London commuter town. While battling the traumas of losing loved ones at home, and in Afghanistan, Brian struggles to connect with the woman who helps him rediscover the man he was meant to be.
