A dramatic romantic comedy with a 1980’s college setting.
This book will make you laugh, cry, angry, happy, sad and keep you wondering. It will probably even make you want to pull some hair out! The characters are best friends that meet at college. They learn many lessons about love, commitment, drugs, life goals and family. It is realistic with a touch of fantasy. Enjoy and not to worry, although things might not work out the way you anticipated, they still work out for the best!
This book started as an afterthought. I have a friend that dated a boat captain and things never seemed to work out. She had two previous relationships that also did not work out. She never had time for college when she was young because she needed to work. I wondered how things may have changed for her had she the opportunity to go to college at a younger age. Then I dreamt this book. I literally dreamt it from beginning to end but I could not remember all of it, so I started focusing. I related my life in college and with friends to the dream I had about her. It took me approximately two years to complete this book entirely.
The main character turned into a combination of people. She is me, and several of my friends combined. Things have always worked out for me, so her motto is mine. When she stomps her foot, that is my friend Jennifer. Changing bad phrases into more colorful kid friendly phrases is Claire. Turning down guys in the nicest of ways is Amber. Eyes that reveal everything is Dawn, but not the Dawn in the book. Blushing nonstop is Melissa. Her love for secondhand designer clothing and vintage clothing is Cindy.
I hope you enjoy this book and that it makes you laugh out loud.
