Twice Inflamed

Synopsis for 'Twice Inflamed', a novel by Z. S. STORM.

***

Two years have passed since the events of 'Once A Cheater'.

Lives have changed. People have moved on.

Or so we think.

Sometimes, we lose ourselves in routine and obsessions just to avoid dwelling on what directions our lives are headed in. Sometimes, we even convince ourselves that we're happy, that our mistakes have been erased over the years and time has healed our wounds.

But most of the time, we fill up that gaping hole in our chest with things and people we don't really need, thinking that one day, we'd become whole again. One day, we'd be able to reflect ruefully on our losses but still look hopefully towards the future.

Nothing works though. Nothing takes away the pain. Nothing we do is enough. All life does now is keep reminding us at every turn that...

Letting go isn't always that easy.
