"This is chick-lit at its best" - Readers' Favorite 5-star review.I started My New Life with a wild leap of faith and a screw driver in my back pocket. Turns out I needed a power tool arsenal…Nancy Myers is having a hard time. She's broken-hearted, homeless and unemployed. And she's just turned forty. But Nancy has a secret weapon. Desperation.Relying solely on her finely-honed ability to make stuff up as she goes along and the battery life of her cordless drill, she's determined to make a fresh start (one that on no account features men of the falling-in-love-with variety).After purchasing a block of land on a whim at the foot of a mountain range, Nancy attempts to settle into rural life. She finds the vista of the alps healing. She also finds a tall, dark and gumbooted stranger (who proves to be therapeutic in other ways).But when she discovers her precious view is about to be taken away, Nancy faces a hard choice. Should she play saboteur to protect her own happiness, even if it means losing the man who just might possibly be the key to it?Maybe her fresh start is actually a false start. Or maybe she's learning a thing or two about how to be a kick-arse, self-reliant woman.The Year of the Fox is the first novel in the very funny Good Life series. If you like determined women, steamy romance, and laugh-out-loud misadventure, you'll love this city-to-country page-turner.

"The more you are willing to do, the more he will do in return." That about sums it up. We are all selfish in bed, when it comes down to it, apparently. At least in the eyes of this author. While I haven't attempted the auto-fellatio test or the ever-awkward, "Hey, I need help reviewing this zine" line, this is a solidly-compelling read. Aside from the obvious skills, there's the lesson here in understanding that people come in different shapes and sizes and how that will benefit your relationship skills out of bed. I could summarize the actual steps to the trick but what fun is that? Get the zine!
