Fatal First Date is the harrowing yet inspiring true story of Chris Smith, a rural Illinois contractor who was shot in the head on a first date gone tragically wrong. His date was murdered by her stalking ex-boyfriend—Chris survived, but barely.
Waking up paralyzed and voiceless, Chris begins a long road to recovery, with humor, grit, and a bullet still in his brain. Nicknamed “Bullet Boy,” he shares how gardening, his loyal dog Tiki, and unwavering family support helped him reclaim his life.
Told with raw honesty, faith, and surprising laughter, Chris’s journey is a powerful reminder of the human spirit’s ability to heal after trauma—and proof that even in the darkest moments, hope can still bloom. Free on Kindle.
