CAROUSEL MAGIC
The Pittsburgh Connection, 2
Thomas Martin never lets feelings get in the way of doing business. As the new owner of the local amusement park, he's determined to replace the old carousel with video games. The town's mayor, Ginger Fairchild, is equally determined to save the vintage carousel from the bulldozer. Tom's broken childhood left him with a strong sense of reality, but not much experience with fantasy or fun. Ginger is sure that if she can encourage Tom to have a little fun, he'll change his mind about this special ride. The park needs a lot of work before opening day. There's not much time. Can Ginger persuade Tom of the carousel's value before it's too late? Does the carousel have enough magic left to change just two more hearts?

CAROUSEL MAGIC was originally published as a novella for new readers. My mother was a fan of vintage carousels, and when I came across her scrapbooks and notes from her carousel visits, the story just leaped into my mind. The book won the Robin Award for Best Romance for New Readers from ProLiteracy, Inc. and RWA. The award included the lovely paperweight shown in the picture.
