Scarred Hearts, Second Chances: Hal and Marilyn's Journey from Lost Love to Redemption in the Hometown They Couldn't Escape.
Hal wasn’t coming home the same as he was when he left. His face was scarred from all of the questions he didn’t answer in his months of captivity. He wasn’t himself, his mind and dreams still riddled with what he’d gone through. Hal hated to admit it, but he knew that he was broken and likely was never going to feel better.
When Marilyn stopped by his security business needing his help, there was nothing else that Hal could do but help her. She was the woman of his dreams after all, even if he’d had to let her go.
Marilyn had left Coloma and become a big-time lawyer in the city but found herself back home to stay close to her roots. The familiarity was what Marilyn needed, but Hal wasn’t even on her radar. She hadn’t seen him coming, and he threw her off. Marilyn’s feelings start to come back to the surface, and she can’t knock them down. She doesn’t want to.
They reconnect and things go from bad to worse. Marilyn falls for Hal one more time, but Hal isn’t ready to show Marilyn how he has changed. He is afraid that she won’t want him now that he is broken. They are going to miss their second chance at love if Hal can’t accept himself as Marilyn does and give them a second chance.
Can Hal overcome his scars and fears to embrace a second chance at love with Marilyn, or will his self-doubt cost them the redemption they both desperately seek?
