Reblogged this on The Twisted Roads Of Matthew Tonks and commented:
To celebrate the release of the first collection of short stories, I thought it’d be smart to revisit some of the stories that find themselves included in the collection. This was the first story that I posted on the blog, and to be honest, it’s still one of my favorites. If you enjoy the small preview, sing up to the mailing list to score you free copy of the anthology, or, if you’re feeling crazy, go buy a copy!
But, whatever you do, know this on fact, true love, real love, it never dies, NEVER!
