Synopsis
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.

Excerpt
She
married Harold, to protect their father. To accept who she’d become or the fact
her sister was starting to hate her. She loved a man who wasn’t ever going to
love her back The only person who could get through to Marie recently also
happened to be awkward around her. Amber. She was also the only person who knew
how Marie felt about Derek. He didn’t know she didn’t love him more than this
other man. Her sister hated how she didn’t know the full story and Marie
refused to tell her the truth. Layla knew about the marriage, she found out
about a few of the other parts to do with Marie's relationship with Harold. Yet
Marie refused to discuss it with anyone. Out of fear of putting them in danger
from his wrath. Harold couldn’t really hurt her and she never told anyone it
wasn’t him who beat her, rather his brother. He just walked away.
A
betrayal she still had to forgive him for. It wasn’t the pain that forced Marie
out of the dance world the first time. It was the fact that she fell for Derek
and wanted to be with him. Yet she couldn’t love him more than Harold. She
tried and still even now she didn’t. Now being with him wasn’t what she
thought. She used him to tape her heart back together after her true love left
her. Derek, at the time, slept with women he found in the bars they danced in,
even some of the groupies who hung around.
She’d
been hurt, and for the last few years she’d kept the truth of her nearly
leaving the Streets a secret. She wouldn’t let Derek think it was because she
was weak. She’d not allowed herself to be weak since.
“Derek,
it wasn’t about pain when I thought about leaving. I couldn’t dance with you
anymore. I couldn’t be around the old things you used to do, because I fell in
love with you back then.” Her words made his head snap towards her and he
almost crashed the car as he took in what she said. He turned his head back at
the last minute and he rubbed his hand down his face. She saw beads of sweat
start to break out on his forehead.
