There’s a girl asleep by my bed. Her name’s Sophie and she’s the love of my life. She doesn’t know that. I’ve never told her, nor given her any clues. I’ve been careful. I’ve been diligent. I’ve been the biggest asshole the world has seen. To her. And to everyone. But after I fell sick, she came back and she’s still here. I don’t know why, if it means anything, what she wants from me. I know I want everything from her but I can’t ask for it. Because I fucked up, I’m probably dying, and it’s too late for second chances… right? This short novel is a standalone story in the Wild Men world (companion to Dark Child), and will release in October as part of the Cards of Love 2018 series. The Strength card is part of the major Arcana.
