What happens after death? Rebirth. Like Sara, I finally understood what I was up against. But unlike her, I only contemplated dying. Her story ended, but mine went on. At some point, part of me died, but what was left, was all fight. And the way I saw it, there were two ways to win a fight. The story continues 10 years after Sara has died. Brandon has moved on, leaving a trail of broken hearts. When newly defeated Tanya is back in town, he’s locked his new target. Brandon is playing the victim now, resurfacing Tanya’s guilt for having left town years ago. Still, he softens her transition back into her old life and impresses her with his daddy skills to ten-year-old Lavender. At first, with what seems like two old acquaintances meeting, a taboo romance begins. Did Tanya forget all those times Sara cried to her about him? Or had she been too wrapped up in her own drama to understand the direness of Sara’s bleeding sanity? With new supply in hand, Brandon is up on his games, finding new ways to manipulate. A narcissist loves to see just what he can get away with. Only a master narcissist could con the best friend of his dead wife. Tanya will fight her own mental battle with Brandon.
