"Unlucky in love." Is there such a thing? Is it about luck? Do some people just never find "the right one"? Many people find the right one early on. Some people find a few right ones and marry four or five times. It is tough, this love business. For most of us anyway. In When Life Hands You Frogs, Arlene Miller tells you her own dating story-from the very beginning. She takes us through schoolgirl crushes, high school insecurities, college experimentation, work relationships, great loves, rebounds, reuniting, and of course, online dating. It is all here. This book is funny, it is sad, and it is relatable. Most importantly, it is honest. There is something for everyone who has ever dated anyone in this memoir of relationships-the good, the bad, and the memorable."What happened to women in the 1970s who did not marry by the time they graduated from college? Arlene's honesty shines in this memoir about dating, and those of us who lived it recognize and applaud its authenticity." - Judythe Lokich, Impresaria"Arlene Miller, AKA The Grammar Diva, tells all in a sometimes laughable and sometimes heart breaking memoir.

You'll cross your fingers, hoping that she'll find her prince, in this fast and entertaining read." - Jeanne Jusaitis, author of Journey to Anderswelt and Lilah Dill and the Magic Kit
