This is my very first attempt at writing a short story.  It's not perfect.  I think it certainly goes too deeply into religion at the beginning.  And always reminds me of a Vincent Price horror.  (Wherever my voice for the story came from?) Especially when the character visits his wife's grave, and later reminisces about their dog's death. But like all stories I've written.  I think it too holds beauty.  Especially when he meets his soul mate at the lunar city.  When I read that part, still, I can't escape from feeling some surge of emotion. 

The story is set in the future,  where technology exists to change the pathway in life  we traveled. 

Let's be honest, have you ever pondered about your existence? Asked yourself the simple question, "WHY IS EVERYTHING SO HARD IN MY LIFE ? WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS?" 

Well then the simple answer might be, you've headed down the wrong road in life, or what is referred to in this book as, a terrestrial cul de sac. A word taken from French, and translated to in English as, "A No True Road." 

If you're curious to know more, please read on... And if you're brave enough to do so, be aware, a world as incredible as the "Twilight Zone", awaits!  Well maybe not. But then I guess, it also depends on the reader..?  And what is one's cup of tea, may not be another's, and so on.

[BOOK ONE] [Completed] [Voted #1 Best Action Story in the 2019 Fiction Awards] Liam Luciano is one of the most feared men in all the world. At the young age of 18, he inherited the family name. 10 years later, the Luciano name is well known for its roll in the Mafia; along with two other families: The Costello's and The Corinelli's. But when a 21 year old is put on all three of the families radar, Luciano steps in the way, doing something he had never done before. Protect her. Through their own series of trials and tribulations, they learn how to love and how to trust. But most importantly, they learn that blood does not define family. - © 2015 taintedkissesxo * cover by thelucianoseries on instagram *
