Marie's
World tells a tale of love gone wrong, of doing the right thing
even if it hurts and how to survive when your world is turned upside
down. Famed dancer, actress and Reality TV star Marie returns
from LA to her hometown in Scotland to escape the fall-out from the
damaging revelations in her twin sister Layla's thinly-disguised
novel. As she attempts to rebuild her life and career with her
partner Derek, Marie's long-repressed memories and emotions come
flooding to the surface, and she finds herself menaced by the world
of her former husband, the only man she has ever truly loved and now
her most dangerous adversary.

Snippet
Being back in Aberdeen made Marie’s
stomach twist up. She held a rucksack over her back, while she
dragged her suitcase behind her. She made her way out of the
International Airport with a lengthening step. She kept her eyes
hidden behind the safety of her sunglasses. Her heart beat in time
with the music blasting through her headphones.
People rushed past her, they went about
with their lives and for a moment Marie soaked up being on the
threshold of the landmark place in her own history. She stood in the
small airport which hadn’t changed a bit and felt her heart race
even faster. She stared at the people always in a rush to get
somewhere. No bigger feeling of coming home than this. For Aberdeen
offered no bigger reminder of the need to work and to achieve a
dream.
The place bred drive and challenged its
citizens to go after their dreams. Seeing it like it used to be hit
her hard and knocked the air out of her chest. She hadn’t thought
she’d ever return here. Not when things were about to change so
drastically. Her entire world would turn upside down and she’d
become lost in it all soon. There wasn’t anything she could do.
She paused, thinking about how Layla’s
book would change all of this. Her twin looked to take away the veils
of everyone’s worlds, secrets. Tucking her hands into her back
pockets, Marie hoped from here she might find away to survive it all.
Up to this moment she did all she could
to stay away from Aberdeen, yet this place got inside her skin and
tore her back.
Marie fought the greatest desire to run
back onto another plane and leave here, but she knew when the news
broke of her past, here would be the safest place for her to be. She
fought a hard battle to not give into it.
People didn’t know the full story of
why she took off out of here when she did. She wore the scars and
reminders of what happened here. Her eyes teared up when she looked
at the lines of taxis. The signs for Scotland and places she often
visited when she trained, competed in dance battles . Created
something good.
She knew what went on here couldn’t
happen again, history couldn’t be allowed to repeat itself. Marie
knew despite everything she couldn’t let her husband back into her
life. She lost two men she loved dearly here. Marie still didn’t
know why her husband took off into the dead of the night. She
remembered painfully well now and she wiped at her tears.
“Marie.” A strong male voice broke
into her thoughts and she remembered his warning. The reason why she
must return here and do what she got paid to do. She couldn’t help
seeing her ex-husband in her mind though. His face the moment he told
her he loved her and how she used to believe this would all be okay.
The way he stroked her cheek, one last time...
Derek warned her about how they had to
do this and they looked to change the way things were, by leading the
way. Dancers were stubborn and soon her dance world would be over for
good. Layla would see to it when her book came out, and the world
would know what mistakes Marie had made. She had wondered how they’d
look at her if her secrets ever came out, and now Marie would get an
answer to this question.
She held one away from even her twin
sister, yet somehow she knew this secret would be coughed up in the
book which was designed to make the dance world choose. Make them
choose between the old ways and the new ones.
