[NOTE: This book was written in 2010, a time of long-distance phone cards, weight-loss obsessions, and searching for a man as a solution to life's problems-what a messy time to be alive! In other words, I hope you enjoy this throwback, and while this book does end on a cliffhanger of sorts, the sequel addresses any unanswered questions (which is hopefully fair, given that book 1 is free, ya know?] An awkward family homecoming at Christmas. A humiliating public weigh-in, with two judging parents as the audience. The announcement of a deadline for arranged marriage doom. And that's just the first two chapters. In "Year of the Chick," Romi Narindra must find love before her parents find her a husband. Easy to say, less easy to live through, as this book takes you deep inside "awkward Indian living in the West." To escape her fate, Romi wades through the waters of secret-dating, where self-consciousness is at an all-time high, and experience at an all-time low. It's the sort of thing that would turn almost anyone into a man-crazy freak with romance tunnel-vision, and that's exactly what ends up happening. All the while, a lack of inspiration in her corporate job leads Romi to her love of writing, in what quickly becomes a man-quest play-by-play. From whiskey-breath scum bags to uni-brow creeps and everything in between, Romi and her wingmen come up empty time after time. And that's when she meets a fellow writer. On the Internet. So will it be arranged marriage doom, or an Internet affair that's not as creepy as "To Catch a Predator"? Time will tell in the "year of the chick," a twelve-month quest to find love. Tick-tock. --------------------------------------------- "Year of the Chick" is book one of a series, and book two is available at Amazon! LENGTH: 75,000 words or 285 pages DISCLAIMER: this book contains profanities, blunt accounts of the dating scene, and many awkward family moments. Enjoy!

I would have said no, to the above questions, before... But then he kissed me and... Well, I didn’t even question it. I just jumped.

Arthur Heart is basically a canker sore in the mouth of society. Or at least being an eighteen year old virgin has convinced him so. In American Pie fashion, he vows to lose his virginity before graduation night—which of course leads him to strike a deal with the devil herself; his best friend’s sister, Liz. Red haired, self assured and crazy as a lark, she claims she can turn him into the man who bags their class's foxy vixen. Liz's harebrained schemes might have just what it takes to have Arthur swipe his V-card with Ms. hot and busty herself. That is, if Arthur can navigate through his destitute biological mother’s mind, keep his pitching arm up to snuff and avoid falling in love with a certain tomboy firecracker first…
