Hannah is absolutely devastated over the latest loss
in her life. She seeks solace and advice from a friend named Jacob. Unfortunately
for Jacob the innocent hug between Jacob and the beautiful blonde at the mall was
witnessed by his wife of two years, Naomi. Naomi quickly thinks the worst. Before
long she confronts her husband whom she believes is having an affair.
Events play out in the expected way which ultimately
results in a story that considers the possibility
of an afterlife as well as a return to mortal form. Hence the cover teaser---“A
modern tale of mistrust & jealousy with a tragic ending--or not?”
Told in three parts the story is an interesting piece
despite the clichéd premise. A story that holds reader interest despite the
fact the work is very much in serious need of a good editor. There are numerous
comma issues, numerous run on sentences, cases of awkward sentence construction
and other editorial problems throughout the entire work. Those issues
negatively impact the read.
