Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Touching, gritty, real, and often laugh-out-loud funny. Highly recommended. A real-life romance, with every kind of beef.” Ree Drummond, New York Times bestselling author
“An irresistible, post-feminist Taming of the Shrew. Don’t be scared by the premise. This is not a story about a woman relinquishing her identity. Quite the opposite. It is a riveting tale about how a brilliant, strong-minded woman liberated herself from a dreary, male-bashing, reality-denying feminism.” Christina Hoff Sommers, author of The War Against Boys
“Valdes has written a thought-provoking exploration of her own missteps and the tremendous obstacles she has overcome to achieve happiness in the second half of her life.” Publishers Weekly
