A perceptive mixture of around 60 sometimes-scandalous relationship tales, Breakup Cocktail is made up of a large measure of reality and a splash of wit. Every tale deals with a different situation or emotion and each one is followed by a shot of appropriate tough-love advice. Do you miss your ex so much you see their ghost sitting next to you watching T.V.? If so, read Taking the Ted out of Haunted for an exorcism of the mind. Do you brush your teeth with their worn-out toothbrush? Marty's tale offers advice to cleanse the palate of someone else's DNA. Would you sell your soul to spend one more day with your old love? What if they stole your mutual friends or bought their lover an engagement ring on your credit card? Have you ever cried for a week straight or been so angry you ate and drank yourself into oblivion? Quentin is bored with his wife so he buys her a long, red wig. Her new look seduces them both, but in this wry, humorous tale of dressing up your unsuspecting wife to look like your girlfriend, she exposes his scheme and calls him in for a little auburn revenge. In another tale, Alice wants to remain friends with her ex, but Keith won't agree unless she becomes friends with his new girlfriend as well. So what's a girl to do? Both easy to read and hard to put down, these tales will take the reader on a breakup journey that crosses over cheating and revenge; passes loneliness and depression by, and reaches recovery-with a smile on every page.
