UNF*CKABLE!
Dating is hard no matter what. But dating in the era of apps and swipes and online competition can be exhausting and sometimes down right disappointing. Author Lucy H. Delaney can’t speak to the male psyche. She has no idea why some men ghost and others profess undying love after one date. She certainly can’t tell you why some guys think it’s appropriate to send d*ck picks after a first date. She’ll leave those explanations up to the male experts, and wholeheartedly encourages you to follow them to understand men.
What she can share with you is the 90 day strategy she used to successfully find long-lasting love. Lucy’s spit-fire humor, witty diatribes and all too clinical dating rules and strategies paired her with a perfect-for-her mate and a love story that’s still going strong years later.
UNF*CKABLE takes interested readers on an insightful foray into modern dating, and offers a counter-cultural approach to the one-night-stand; an approach that just might be the ultimate strategy to long-lasting love!
