The Gonna Find Love Club
A Workplace Dating Romance with a Twist
by
R.Thomas Roth
Love, Romance, Coffee … and Some Buff Guy in a Thong. It’s 2003, the dawn of online dating, and the world will never be the same. At Fairburn Community College, four professors are quietly unraveling when it comes to love. Ben has a fear of rejection that could qualify as a minor medical condition. Frank can’t stop chasing the one who got away. Dan is watching his marriage burn out in real time. Nick is a ladies’ man convinced that charm alone will carry him forever. But the guys are not the only ones looking for love. Kate is a rising star on a losing streak so long her mother is talking about it. Cathy is wondering what happened to the man she married. And who is II42, the new online dating mystery man everyone is talking about? With dream sequences, romantic misfires, and friendships under pressure, the search for connection spills into unexpected places. A muscle car becomes a conscience, and the local ducks are offering dating advice. Beneath the laugh-out-loud humor is the fallout of early online dating, misread signals, and the things we don’t say that need to be said. Witty and character-driven, The Gonna Find Love Club is a romantic comedy about the mess we make while trying to get it right. It’s also a lot of fun. Because love is fun, and if we’d all stop taking everything so seriously and just talk to each other, we might have a better time of it.
R. Thomas Roth knows about Shakespeare—and Petrarch, for that matter, having been a teacher for thirty-three years. He knows about finding love, and losing it, and finding it again. Some of The Gonna Find Love Club is a playful nod to his own experiences, some of it is horror (and humour) from the dawn of the online dating scene, and some of it is just for fun. Because love is fun, and if we’d all stop taking everything so seriously and just talk to each other we might have a better time of it. This is Roth’s first novel about love, but it’s not likely to be his last.
