About the Book
A fresh and vibrant voice offers a hilarious look at the lengths one woman will go to find--and keep--the man of her dreams.Book Synopsis
Amelia Lockwood doesn't mean to sound greedy. She's got a fabulous career in television, a posh apartment, and four fiercely loyal and wickedly funny friends. The only thing she's missing is a husband. So she swallows her pride, signs up for dating boot camp, and enlists the help of a professional--an acidic New Yorker with a black belt in "tongue fu"--who'll help Amelia apply proven business-marketing principles to finding her dream man. Amelia's first assignment is to track down all the lovers she's ever lost--from the guy who dumped her during Live Aid to her most painfully recent ex, he-whose-name-shall-forever-remain-unspoken--because her future happiness depends on her tackling lesson number one: If you can't learn from your past, how will you ever move forward?
