Abstract
This short story collection, Love, contains four short stories titled: “Just Enough”, “The Arrival”, “Fathers”, and “Running”. Each story is told from the perspective of a different character, all of which are members of the same family. The goal of this collection is to portray the different types of love that exist in our world, and to show how vast and complicated each of them are. Love is powerful, compelling, and ever-changing, a fact that each character—Jen, Katie, Cade, and Chris—all discover and learn in throughout this collection. Readers are shown how these characters grow and change, over decades, and how their love for each other is affected by time.
