            Can love, once brutally forsaken, ever be recaptured?  And if such a thing could be possible, even as only a living memory, would you go to the depths necessary to retrieve it?  In A Heart Given is Never Lost actress and writer, Kristen Lucas, takes us into the tormented heart and mind of regretful NYC newlywed Seth as he struggles to reconcile the naiveté of reconnection with the one he drove away and the maddening complexities of turning the love he has into the one he wants.

 

            With an almost unnatural sense of how to manipulate her characters into scratching the most raw of our emotional scars, Miss Lucas brings forth the devastating duality in the true nature of love.  At once both exhilarating and fool hearty, love is hopelessly torturous, yet compelling enough to induce anyone inflicted to risk sanity itself in order to embrace the essence for just a moment longer.

 

            Beyond testifying to all that it takes to relinquish your being to another, A Heart Given is Never Lost holds you close in a way that can only be described as intensely personal.  It exposes our fears and dreams when it comes to confronting humanity’s struggle with the most volatile of all our emotions—and demonstrates in a gritty and all-to-real way that that one day, love will make fools of us all.
