High profile mortician James hope is faced with a major spiritual dilemma after discovering his wife of 20 years has been diagnosed with stage four cancer and only has six months to live. Life and death gives us no choices, but will James push his boundaries and conquer a power human has never sought after before? Find out in this riveting mini short story written by novelist and storyteller Pierre S. Hughes.
The story starts out as a simple romance story of the love a husband and wife share, but it quickly takes a turn for the macabre. The twist at the end Is part Stephen King horror and Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet turned on its head.
I wouldn’t exactly call this short tale a romance. It’s more an Edgar Allen Poe style tale of obsessive love or massive denial not sure which but it was a short entertaining read.
This little read was ultra quick. A tale of two lovers, who by the hand of fate, would be parted while one does whatever possible to reunite them. It’s an okay story - weird and a little disturbing, but an okay story.
