After Everything They Survived, It Was the Future That Made Them Nervous
AMISS³ explores the unexpected fears that emerge when long-awaited dreams finally begin to come true

MARIETTA, GA – For years, Paul and Carla focused on surviving whatever challenge came next.

The future could wait.

After enduring uncertainty, heartbreak, and emotional upheaval, simply making it through each day often felt like enough. But in L. L. McCall’s AMISS³, the future they once feared might never arrive, finally begins to take shape.

And that is when new questions emerge.

Set in Long Island’s Cold Spring Harbor, the novel follows Paul and Carla as they enter a new chapter filled with hope, opportunity, and changing expectations. The struggles that once defined their lives begin to fade, replaced by decisions and possibilities that carry a different kind of weight.

As circumstances evolve and relationships continue to change, both discover that uncertainty does not disappear simply because life improves. The closer they come to the future they once dreamed about, the more they realize how much there is to protect and preserve.

What makes AMISS³ particularly compelling is its exploration of a truth many people recognize but rarely discuss: happiness does not eliminate anxiety. Sometimes the moments people look forward to most are the very moments that force them to confront new fears and unanswered questions.

Through Paul and Carla’s journey, McCall examines hope, resilience, and the courage required to embrace an unknown future. The novel offers a thoughtful look at the emotional complexities that accompany change, even when that change is welcomed.

At its heart, AMISS³ asks a simple but powerful question: What happens when the life you’ve been fighting for finally begins to arrive?

In the end, AMISS³ is less about what Paul and Carla survived than what they must learn to embrace moving forward.

AMISS³ is available now on Amazon.
