Gorp: A Love Story

Oisin is a college freshman whose most noteworthy skill is, like most men his age, the unerring ability to jump to perfectly well-reasoned and yet completely incorrect conclusions. When he meets an imitation college student who might be named Gwen, he decides she's probably an undercover cop. She isn't, unfortunately--but after Oisin asks her out to lunch, he slowly begins to discover both the complicated history and personality hiding behind her rather gruff exterior. He might even come to like the strange young woman, if her troubles don't get him killed, first... Gorp is a thirty-thousand word (around two-hundred page) new adult story about college, cats, love, and leftovers. Contains no sex, no werewolves, no vampires, no handsome millionaires, and no tentacles, but does include mild language, a secret society of militant octogenarians, a talking cat, and leftover Chinese food.
