Fishing for Compliments

A morning coffee story for those workplace romantics

Lyle Adam can never catch a break. For years, all he wanted was a simpleton life:- Meet a woman he could tolerate for longer than thirty minutes, have a couple of kids, and maybe, just maybe, open a seafood restaurant. But apart from the restaurant, at forty, he still can't seem to catch himself a wife.

Charlie Horton has one goal—to get a job. After three years in a way overpriced university abroad, she is one step from losing her apartment. Strapped for cash, she takes a part-time job at a seafood restaurant owned by her brother's best friend.

A guaranteed Happily Ever After. This story is for your early morning coffee.
