Seven Short Twists

A young professional returns to his college campus and sees an old girlfriend. A businessman meets a stranger who makes him an offer he can’t refuse. A couch potato discovers a one-of-a-kind electronic gadget that could change his life. A disillusioned husband searches for a way out of his dead-end life. A lawyer makes an appeal for a second chance at love. These and others share a special connection in this book: they experience an unexpected twist in life events that surprises them -- sometimes dramatically. In Seven Short Twists, Robert Simms tells the tales of seven men caught up in the passions of their lives. For some of them, their pasts catch up with them. For others, their regrets haunt them. For most of them, lost loves linger in their dreams. Unexpected encounters lead to unanticipated endings. Robert Simms draws on his imagination, classic themes, and some of his own haunting memories to tell seven tales that will touch some chord in every reader’s heart.
