Alex likes One Direction, but isn't the biggest fan. But everything changes when she accidentally calls Harry Styles. Her, her best friend Misty, and a girl they meet named Kirsten all go and visit the boys at their house in London. What happens when they all end up falling for the wrong people? And what happens when Alex has to keep it all a secret from everyone back home? (ft. some Larry)

Getting lost usually sucks ass and this is no exception. This is the story of Erin, who steps into the wrong building and thus the wrong elevator, which breaks down with her in it. Niall Horan of One Direction is also in this cramped predicament. Now, to many fangirls this would be an answer to their prayers. They'd expect Niall to fall in love with them for some reason, them to get rescued and spend the rest of their lives together. But life isn't so convenient, even for celebrities, for fame means nothing when you're trapped in a box.

[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!
