Un Bacio Sulle Labbra: A Kiss on the Lips

To swoon is to give one's life, willingly or not, to that which captures the soul. Daniel, a young writer in Seattle, falls deeply in love with an Italian woman whose family circumstances force their relationship to remain a secret.Un Bacio Sulle Labbra is a meditation on romance beyond infatuation-on love that lingers, and on the cost of true commitment.Set against the wet backdrop of Seattle, the underground bar scene, and Italian heritage, this novella follows the unraveling of memory, where a single kiss becomes the axis upon which Daniel's life turns. It is a case to prove romance is alive and well in SeattleWith a voice that is both intimate and unflinching, Keven D. Stehl explores the fragility of desire and the quiet forces that erode even the most sincere connections. This is not a story of grand gestures or overwrought motifs, but of honesty-of the delicate and dangerous nature of new love.These are the moments that linger. The ones that shape perception and quietly rewrite the narrative. And when even one of them falters, everything can be lost.When lost in the mirage, it is hard to see what is unfolding.And sometimes, a kiss is never just a kiss.Second Edition Bonus:This edition includes a behind-the-scenes reflection from the author, exploring the original conception of the story and how it has evolved over time.
