I wanted to include this story along with my reposting of The Sun Also Rises. I tend to carry over characters from story-to-story. And I know that it can be confusing when people from prior stories appear in the middle of new ones. Especially if a lot of time has passed as is the case here. This was written over a year after the Sun Also Rises. I wanted to explore the theme of infidelity between people who are essentially made for each other. The title is from a Hemingway short story.
Out of the frying pan, into the fire… Or in the case of 23-year-old Vincent Hargrove — out of a tragic past, into an unfaithful marriage. When it gets to be too much he runs away. Isolated in the woods hoping against hope that time will heal all wounds. Isolation in the deep woods of central Oregon he finds peace in solitude. As he develops a small parcel of land left to him by his grandparents he gets along with minimal human contact, until a desperate foreign woman crosses his path. / (Reviews)

This story is not erotic and there is minimal sex, if you can call it that. I hope it is romantic, in its own way. It is more a study where the feeling and symptoms are taken from actual case studies about this problem and are all put into one story. Since I have been there and done that, I knew what I was looking for. So there is no one person named Kara -- she is a compilation of hundreds of case studies I read about on sites for this type of problem as background.
