This book provides a roadmap—based on interviews with women who have been there—on how to transition from a relationship that did not work to one that is a joyous, loving, and intimate experience with a new partner. Finding a partner and maintaining a relationship are important emotional issues for most women—issues that become even more complicated in the aftermath of a love that ends. When I Fall in Love Again: New Study on Finding and Keeping the Love of Your Life helps women in this situation navigate the tricky terrain between breaking up and starting over in a practical, empathetic, and forthright way. When I Fall in Love Again is filled with candid insights and advice about sex, dating, expectations, and life with, without, and in between partners. It is based on an unprecedented Internet survey of over 400 women answering specific questions about their experiences, plus 70 in-depth personal interviews—60 women, 10 men—conducted by coauthor Jane Merrill. What these people have to say will give guidance and hope to women facing similar situations. The book also includes 10 self tests and 12 relationship tests to help women assess themselves on a range of personal and interpersonal issues.

Employees of both sexes share the work environment, and a mishandled office romance can be disastrous for love, a life partnership, or a career. Avoid the pitfalls of love-at-work-from the corner office to the online "friend"-with this 21st-century guide. The typical workplace offers constant opportunities for face-to-face communication and social interaction. Individuals within a work environment have common experiences, share the same frustrations or feelings, and can easily garner details about one another from simple observation and casual conversation. It is not surprising that workplace romances happen so frequently, making it a topic of great interest to far more individuals than those who work in Human Resources departments. Finding Love from 9 to 5: Trade Secrets of Office Romance is not about workplace misbehavior. It's about love relationships that begin-and sometimes end-on company time, regardless of whether these individuals work in the same physical environment or not. Powerful emotions can and do ignite via a virtual connection as easily as in an actual shared workplace environment-real relationships spark in either context. This book is for anyone who has fallen in or out of love in the workplace, the single person who is dreaming of or on the brink of an office romance, and colleagues and supervisors who must learn to live and work among those involved in "in-house" relationships. Reveals original data from 774 adults who completed an online survey and interviews with 70 people who have experienced an office romance Provides a roadmap for navigating the brave new world of office romance that specifies the etiquette of workplace relationships and addresses issues involving email, text messages, Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter Contains chapters with compelling content such as "What HE is Thinking," "When the Office Romance Becomes Sexual," "Dating up and Down the Ranks," and "Marry Your Office Love?" Describes office policies, including love contracts
