She's the product of a happy marriage, an only child, spoiled rotten by her doting father. She has a successful career that she loves and a clan of girlfriends that have been by her side since adolescence. Some say that she has the perfect life. If you look deeper, you'll notice that the only thing missing from her picture-perfect life is someone to share it with. Glenn's deep, dark secret is that she is unlucky when it comes to love. Unlucky is putting it nicely. She considers herself the subject of a terrible curse, placed upon her years ago, and it has haunted her since, ruining every chance at love she's even had. So what happens when she's suited by not one, but two eligible men, both courting for her affections? Will she fall for them both, be forced to choose between them? Or will the curse ultimately claim two more unwitting victims? This is Glenn's story...
