The fourth volume of seven budget story samplers, Merry Go Round explores the wonderful, disappointing, surprising world of romantic relationships from thrift-store flirting and technology-infused dating to damp squib dates and divorce. All of these lovelorn excursions are made with one purpose: to inspire, excite and move the reader. The book contains... The Blue Period: a mosaicist and a zoologist meet under the connivance of a mischevious monkey. Willoughby: sometimes even a dog-bite on a beach can kindle unexpected romance. Merry Go Round: a disappointed divorcee experiences a slew of dismal dates... until she meets her match. ...and four more tales. "Gavin Boyter's fiction brings the reader into another place and time. It is a rare writer who can make a situation far away seem real and relatable and Gavin's story does just this." - Lisa C. Taylor, WORDPEACE Fiction Editor.
