Description:


Here you find ten tales of unexpected love in unexpected places with unexpected endings. Reader beware. The stories are always serious, often comic, sometimes a little bit outright crazy.
The Middle of the End (Can romance ever really exist in a retirement village?)
Kisses at the Beach  (Who will drown, who will kiss, who will marry?)
Choosing a Husband Troubles  (A rancher woman who sells bull semen has three boyfriends.  No, four.)
Lonely Scavenger Seeks a Wife  (At first it seems that Timothy is only the comic Charlie Chaplin of failed love adventures.)
The Sum of All My Parts  (This story tests your stomach to discover just how emotional, and literal, these parts can be.)
My Name Is Santa Claus  (Can you believe in a real Santa Claus? How about Santa’s secret lover?)
Love Is As Love Does!  (A college student turns her homework assignment into an expose of her parents’ love melodrama! Complete with exclamation marks!!)
The Strange Science of Estrella  (The reader must decide who exactly are the two women in this fuzzy story about great devotion.)
Twin Sisterhoodlums  (2 sisters, 2 bottles of wine, 2 fiances off stage. The curtain rises, the dialogue begins.  Oh, my.)
Geronimo from San Francisco  (In WWII a U.S. sergeant fights Germans because he loves one so much.)
