The bestselling author of "The Between Boyfriends Book "and an award-winning writer for "Sex and the City "and "Modern Family "takes a hilarious, heartbreaking look at marriage Cindy Chupack has spent much of her adult life writing about dating and relationships for several hit TV series and as a sex columnist for "O, The Oprah Magazine." At the age of thirty-nine, she finally found The One--and a wealth of new material. Marriage, Cindy discovered, was more of an adventure than she ever imagined, and in this collection of essays she deftly examines the comedy and cringe-worthy aspects of matrimony. Soulful yet self-deprecating, "The Longest Date "recounts her first marriage (he was gay) and the meeting of Husband No. 2, Ian. After the courtship and ceremony, both Cindy and Ian realized that happily ever after takes some practice, and near constant negotiation over everyday matters like cooking, sex, holidays, monogamy, and houseguests. "The Longest Date "takes a serious turn when it comes to infertility. "The Longest Date "is the perfect companion for anyone navigating a serious relationship, be it newlyweds or couples moving in that direction.

Cindy Chupack takes a hilarious look at love, dating-and not dating-in this witty, truthful and utterly charming book. Tackling topics such as "sexual sorbet" (the first man you sleep with after a breakup), "the VISA defense" (the claim, usually invoked by men, that 'I paid, therefore I am innocent') and "eggsistential crisis" (a panic attack, common among women in their late thirties), The Between Boyfriends Book is as reassuring as that late-night post-date phone call to a best friend. It says: you may be single, but you are not alone. "Oh, how I love this book I laughed out loud again and again. It hits such an intimate and true chord, it's painful actually, how insightful Cindy Chupack is. Every woman who's been through the dating miasma must read it."- Julia Sweeney "Cindy Chupack is funny about single. Very funny. And smart. And sympathetic. And empathetic. And helpful. And the stories in this book are really horrible in a great way."- Delia Ephron
