It comes with a new cover, new chapters and happiness all over, replete with a preface by the best-selling short story author Jonathan Marcantoni of The Shortcut: 20 Stories to Get You From Here to There fame.
The search for that special person can be a long, nerve-wracking journey or a very colorful lesson on love and commitment. This journey can be one of great introspection and reflection that teaches us about our deepest desires and needs. LOOKIN' IN THE MIRROR takes a look into the lives of Vicki and Gerald, and their choices in the dating game.
Vicki is a journalist who lives in Washington, D.C. She and her all-girl posse take D.C. by storm. From her own reflections she sees herself as a down-to-earth diva with a wonderful sense of humor and an affinity for sports. On one hand, she is every man's dream while on the other hand men fear her. She also happens to have a serious commitment phobia. Can she overcome her fears to make a commitment? Will she even want to?
Gerald is a professional businessman who lives in Houston, TX with aspirations of moving. He's got his professional life together in a well paying job with growth potential, he mentors a young man in his community, he's [a great guy]. Any woman would be happy to have a man like him. But, he's been burned one time too many. He always seems to attract the one who "almost" meets his criteria. In his search for a serious commitment, will there be any woman to meet his many qualifications?
Madeline Hatter gives an often humorous and entertaining reflective look at Americans in the dating game, as roles have changed over the years. No longer are women rushing to the marriage altar. She covers the full gamut of dating. Written in a form similar to that of a personal journal for each of the two main characters, we took an insightful look into their lives for a full year as they discovered their desires, their weaknesses and their struggles to overcome insecurities. I enjoyed the style which Hatter used to tell the story. The banter was lively, engaging and very down-to-earth.
