Would you rather experience a devastating grief or never having known real love? Kissed by a Flame explores the former. Jamie has never recovered from Teddys death. Jamie is overdramatic. Teddy is dead. Jamie is talking to Teddy. Teddy has been dead 11 years. Do you know what its like to live without the person you loved with all your heart? Jamie does. Teddy did the easy bit, dying. The living, the survivors, the guilty; they are left with the imprint everywhere. When Jamie opens the drawer that still contains Teddys clothes, and his smell hits his nostrils. When Jamie wakes up in the morning and forgets that Teddys not there laying beside him. Jamie living everyday without Teddy, feeling him everywhere thats the hard part. Yes, it has been 11 years, although the imprint is less, it remains. Jamie puts on the mask that is acceptable to everyone, packaging away his unending grief. Until Jamie unboxed Teddys diary from that 18-month period, with all the grief and unresolved issues that come with it. Its time to finish this chapter of his life with Teddy. Will Teddy help? Jamie hopes Teddy will help him. Written by Simon Perrott, Kissed by a Flame is a window into the final months of that once- in-a-lifetime kind of love; the beautiful, tragic, funny, and bittersweet moments that bind Jamie and Teddy together. A romantic tragedy for our times. 'Its better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.' Alfred Lord Tennyson.
