Things We Left Behind

The story follows Lucian and focuses mainly on the dynamic between him and a woman with a complicated past; the two have been connected since long ago, but were separated by circumstances and life choices. When they reappear in each other's lives, unfinished feelings return – along with the pain they "left behind".

The novel deals with themes such as:

• emotional trauma and gradual healing
• second love and second chances
• family relationships and personal responsibilities
• the boundaries between love and emotional self-protection

Lucy Score builds the story with plenty of emotional tension, lively dialogue and strong romantic moments, as well as her typical humour that balances the drama.
