In this unconventional love story, 25-year-old Country singer - songwriter, Serena Barnes becomes 'The One Who Didn't Die.' 

We never meet her, but we see the life of Serena's sister, Daphne, through her eyes. Through Serena's journey in dealing with loss, we are able to learn about the life of someone she loved. We tap into what it means to be the one who is left behind. The one who is left with all the memories. The one who has to learn to live again. 

EXTRACT:

"What do you need from me." He asked turning to me.

"I just, I'm scared, I need you to hold me." I said sighing a tearless breath putting the phone down. He wrapped his arms around me and we sat like that for a while. I could hear his steady heart beat and it was calming.

Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10K
A Slip of the Hand by scarlettrosestories
62 parts Complete Mature
It starts at a concert. For years, the haunting melodies and darkly poetic lyrics of Oliver Rose and The Thorns have provided Madison solace and inspired the explosions of color she's never dared to call art. Now, as she begins her post-college life in Los Angeles, she finally gets to see The Thorns live. An embarrassing mistake connects her with Daniel, and the spark between them is instant. But he's not just any swoon-worthy stranger-he's one of Oliver Rose's oldest friends. Before she can even process this twist of fate, Madison finds herself whisked away to the band's afterparty, living out a scene straight from her fantasies. And then, there he is: Oliver Rose, the man whose voice has scored her every heartache and triumph, in the flesh. To Madison's utter amazement, the charismatic frontman seems just as intrigued by her. But life rarely follows the lyrics of a love song. While the allure of her teenage celebrity crush is undeniable, Madison can't ignore the easy connection blooming with Daniel. As fantasy and reality blur, her choices threaten to unravel not only her dreams, but the tight-knit world of the band she idolizes. In life, as in art, the most beautiful creations often emerge from the messiest processes. What readers are saying: "The first story that left me utterly breathless 😁" "Interesting storyline right off the bat. Deep characters with great development. Most importantly...VERY VERY good writing and that's a must for me. I can't wait to see what happens. I'm so intrigued."
