MARIETTA, GA - Most people assume the hardest part comes during the crisis. For Paul and Carla, the harder challenge began after it was over. L. L. McCall's AMISS² follows a couple attempting to rebuild their lives after a series of extraordinary events that nearly tore them apart. Having survived turmoil, uncertainty, and emotional upheaval, they finally arrive at something that resembles normal life. What they soon discover, however, is that returning to normal is not nearly as simple as it sounds.
Set in Long Island's Cold Spring Harbor, the novel explores the often-overlooked reality that follows life-changing events. The immediate danger has passed. Daily routines return. Friends and family assume the worst is behind them. Yet beneath the surface, questions remain unanswered, emotions linger, and memories continue to shape the present.
For Paul and Carla, ordinary life becomes a new kind of test.
Couples counseling, difficult conversations, and the ongoing effort to understand one another become part of their routine. Some days bring progress and optimism. Other days remind them how deeply past experiences can influence the way people think, feel, and connect. Both are determined to move forward, but neither can simply leave everything behind.
What makes AMISS² particularly compelling is its focus on the quieter moments of recovery. McCall pays attention to the conversations that happen behind closed doors, the doubts that emerge unexpectedly, and the small decisions that gradually rebuild confidence and trust. Rather than concentrating solely on dramatic events, the novel explores the emotional work required to create stability after life has been disrupted.
The result is a thoughtful story about resilience, forgiveness, and the challenges of building a future when the past still feels close. Through Paul and Carla's journey, AMISS² reminds readers that healing is rarely a single moment. More often, it is a process shaped by patience, understanding, and the willingness to keep moving forward one day at a time.
Readers can discover AMISS² through Amazon.
