Tall Stuff is "Singing in the Rain" meets "Love Story". Tall Stuff is a classic loves story based in small town, Sunfield. In a simple but sophisticated way, Tall Stuff, is an unpretentious, sometimes humourous, story about the mysteries of true love and infatuation. This heart felt story asks the reader to look at the question: what are the consequences of falling in love with the wrong person? According to Webster's, an obsession is "a persistent, disturbing preoccupation with an idea or feeling". For Tori Walker, aka - Tall Stuff, the overwhelming feeling is for Mitch Ames, an engineer who has moved into her apartment building. He's the proverbial tall, dark, and handsome male. Convinced he's the only man for her, she can think of nothing but Mitch Ames, though at twenty-seven she berates herself for behaving like a smitten teenager. Humour enlivens the story, but when Tori finally succeeds in her romantic quest to win the man of her dreams, the wise adage proves true: Be careful what you wish for.
