Synopsis
They
say there are five stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and
acceptance.
Not
everyone will grieve in this order, nor will everyone go through every stage.
It’s during the stage of denial when Alex Hart meets Andrew Foster. He takes
her one-step closer to acceptance: the stage when new, meaningful relationships
are formed. The stage when the realization occurs that this is now the new
state of normal.
Just
when Alex thinks she is on her way to healing, she enters the bargaining phase.
That’s the phase where you wonder what you could have done differently. You
wonder “what if?” Specifically, what if the ones you loved hadn’t left you?
Leaving…this
is what makes heading off to war so difficult and frightening for Alex. She
knows all too well what it’s like to be the one on the losing end of life,
which is why she’s made it her personal mission in life to save as many lives
as possible. The extreme high she gets from treating trauma victims turns into
Alex’s own form of therapy, or so she thinks.
When
faced with her world being turned upside down, Alex may just find that her true
therapy is in the one who has always saved her.
For the first time since its release, Skipping Stones will be
