Rough & Beautiful: Very Short Romance Stories by Charlie Close (9 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Every day needs a little romance. Rough & Beautiful is filled with tiny love stories, each as brief as the moment before a kiss. There are tales from the olden days, of princes and princesses, the young and alluring, and the cruel and rakish. And there are contemporary stories, filled with writers and musicians, students and working girls, and husbands and wives grown apart. The one thing they all have in common is boy meets girl and they find their happily ever after. *** These stories are unlike other romance stories you have read. Their extreme brevity allows you to bring your own interpretation and imagination to them. Two sample stories: "Yes, yes, it's a love potion, but I haven't perfected it yet. Choose something else." Michael forgot he had practiced his proposal to Kate on his own answering machine.
