Dating in New York City is not a game for amateurs. Like any sport, it requires appropriate attire (a.k.a., an outfit that makes you look better than Amal Clooney), a strategy (developed over brunch with your friends), and a coach to keep you sane (your best friend, your roommate, or a trusty colleague).

Forty-six-year-old Rhonda Basil says a lot of things. Herding around four children, a sleep-deprived husband, and a dog that seems to have adapted the gene of nine lives puts a lot of stress on a working mom- especially when the family makes her want to bash her head against a wall. Between the kids and their dad, Rhonda is known as the nagging, screaming, never-satisfied mother that they've been blessed to have. Between Rhonda and her blogging site, her children and husband are known as the people that can't seem to be responsible, pick up after themselves, stop whining, and decide dinner on their own. But when Rhonda's blog is discovered, hurt, betray and defiance appears.
