Description

Layabout Larry Johnstone's life mission to find the perfect spouse began in his early teens. After dating (and being dumped) by nearly a hundred women, he finally meets and proposes to his dream girl, Heather—a successful advertising executive from Vancouver.

A shocking truth about Larry surfaces during his bachelor party, thwarting his plans for a traditional wedding. Determined to complete his quest, he abandons his Ottawa life and flies to his "Schnookums" on the West Coast—only to discover his mission might not come to fruition as expected, thanks to a charismatic Scandinavian with ice blue eyes and a portable meatball oven.

Needing guidance, Larry stumbles into a non-conventional church, where a seagull-cawing woman reveals a prophecy: Larry will father a nation and be married to the voice of a generation. With the help of Peter, a hippie who "spreads the love" in the streets, and newfound friends at the Hospice of Good Hope, Larry is driven to seek the answer to the question: "How the hell will this prophecy be fulfilled?"

Dissatisfied Me: West Coast Larry is a spin-off from Bruce D. Gordon's first novel, Dissatisfied Me: A Love Story.
