I was born and raised in Chicago. I am definitely a dreamer and a believer that all things are possible. I am also a sucker for a happy ending and I am always rooting for the underdog. My first book "Dump Him" is not all about bashing guys. It's about the journey through the course of relationships and the self discovery that takes place when you truly realize that you deserve the best. One of my favorite movies is "Pretty Woman". I love it because in the end when so many women would have just settled with what they were given because it was better than what they had in the beginning, this woman chose not to accept that. Even though she was a call girl she knew that she deserved the fairy tale. Writing "Dump Him" was my way of telling my inner Vivian that I deserved the fairytale as well. I am excitedly working on my next book and grateful for all the experiences that have made me who I am. I hope on some level when you read my books you get a sense that I understand your journey. Though I may not have walked a mile in your shoes, I have experienced hurt and pain. I have loved and lost and loved some more. I've had many "what the heck was I thinking" moments. On some level as women we can somehow find a common thread that connects our experiences. I thank you for taking this journey with me...

Dedication

This book is dedicated to my best friends who have listened when I needed an ear, who have shouted You Go Girl when I needed a cheer, who have cried and laughed with me often at the same time, who I will love and cherish always as true friends of mine.

***

And to all of my boys of summer…Never mind—they’re so vain; they’ll probably think this book is about them anyway.

About The Author

As a thirty-something professional woman, it is definitely safe to say that I have dated quite a bit. I have had some serious relationships and some not-so serious relationships. After sharing countless dating tales with my best girl friends, they all agreed that I should write a book about my dating experiences. I thought that it was a great idea in theory, but I never knew how to approach it. Until the proverbial light bulb went off.

There I was knee deep in a relationship with a guy who was the antithesis of what I wanted in a man. But yet I was still with him. While I gave men before him their pink slips over the smallest little thing; I gave this guy chance after chance and I couldn’t understand what made him so special. Why couldn’t I just dump him and be done with it?

So there it was. I wanted to write a quick pocketbook guide to getting out of bad relationships. Not a how-to, but a when-to and a why-to. A little something, something that women could keep at their fingertips to use as a reference or just a
