Synopsis

No one wants to admit defeat, but sometimes divorce and the disintegration of a toxic relationship can be the best thing that ever happened to you!

It may not feel so at the time, but with perspective, good friends, and a glass or two of wine, you will be able see the cad for what he was—and learn to move on with your life.

This was the case for author Linda Penner when she got divorced. In this memoir-based work of creative nonfiction, she looks back on what she thinks is a romantic life and realizes her husband put up so many red flags it could have been a parade. Taking his phone into the shower with him. Impersonal cards and gifts. Late-night dog-walking trips (why is he wearing cologne?).

A closer glance at the Visa bill confirms the worst. Linda knows when enough is enough, and she forges ahead on a new journey.

It will not be an easy one. Fraught with nosy coworkers, fair-weather friends, and frustratingly elusive childcare, the days are long, and the nights are too short. But Linda sallies forth. Her hilarious adventures as a newly single woman are inspirational and freeing.
