Chloe Knaggs is a bit of a nerd, a bit of a klutz, and all Blunder Woman, especially when it comes to love. Take the love of her life, Matt M. - or as she calls him - Mmm. He's her consummate unboyfriend, meaning, they have all the intimacy of a dating couple without any of the intimacy. Confused? So is Chloe. When Matt decides to elope with the very beautiful, svelte Amber, Chloe goes a little bit crazy and takes her hippy mom and best friend Megan right along with her. Blunder Woman is a hilarious romp with bright characters through a series of misadventures including a derby party gone horribly wrong, a night of drinking Flaming Turtles, and a fundraising event where the biggest blunder of all occurs. Blunder Woman is funny, fresh, and above all real...in a truly awkward way.

1932. Michigan. An autumn storm. A home for the insane. Dr. Elliott Kinney arrives at the Northern Michigan Insane Asylum ready to ease psychological suffering with his modern techniques. Kinney is also running away from the torment of a dead sister and perhaps the loss of his own sanity. Under the asylum, in The Tunnels, a group of inmates travel freely within the shadows, keeping and tending to their own secrets. Kinney's arrival will change everyone-especially Alma, a child born in the asylum, and raised to womanhood in secret. "Tunnel Vision" twists and turns, and is, in essence, a psychological Frankenstein. Along with the novella "Tunnel Vision," Tanya Eby includes three stories from the edge: "The Perfect Neighbor," "The Shedow," and "Birth Day." These stories are cold and haunting, and deal with the darker difficulties of what it means to be a woman in our new millennium.

Dana Kupiac's husband left her over a year ago for the wilds of Ohio and a woman named Allyssa, leaving Dana a single mom on a mission to succeed in her canning business. With the help of Dana's eternally-lactating sister Valerie, Dana takes a once in a lifetime trip to a food conference in Las Vegas where she learns about selling her spicy chutneys, and meets the owner of a gourmet food store. Their weekend together ends in an impromptu ceremony where they're "married" by Elvis. "Foodies Rush In" is a story that proves that love can happen for anyone, even if your heart is broken and you're starting over. Even if you have a crazy family. Even if you're a nerd more comfortable with the recipe for a great chicken piccata than a recipe for a real relationship. If Iron Chefs can create delicious onion-flavored ice cream, then maybe two misfits can find the right recipe for love.
