Under Construction

The release of LOVE, INC. is just weeks away and reviews are trickling in. Here’s what Kirkus had to say:

Following her parents' separation, Zahra is forced into group therapy, where she meets Kali and Syd. The three girls quickly find that fractured families are not all they have in common - it turns out that they are all dating the same guy. Despite their differences, they find they are all good at one thing: revenge. After trashing their boyfriend's reputation, they decide to offer their services to others. The specialty at Love, Inc., is initially payback, but the three jilted girls find they have a wider range of love-related services to offer. Genuinely endearing, narrator Zahra reacts authentically to betrayal, her parents' separation and the confusion of assimilating her Pakistani and Scottish- American roots. Smart dialogue and a hip cast of characters keep the story engaging...

Our web elves have been busy updating our website and creating a whole new micro-site for the new book. Although it’s still a work-in-progress, the website is live at LoveIncBook.com. Check it out!

In the next week or two, we’ll be launching a “fortune teller” game on LoveIncBook.com. Do you find yourself asking tough questions like:

· Who should pay on a first date—him, or me?

· Can I dump a guy by e-mail or text?

· I kissed a guy who has a girlfriend and now he wants to dump her for me. What do I do?

If so, Zahra, Syd and Kali—LOVE, INC.’s mediation, revenge and matchmaking experts—are ready to give you a unique spin on these, and dozens of other questions.

Sign up to follow us on Twitter and you’ll be the first to know when the game goes live. LOVE, INC.’s opinionated panel welcomes any and all questions on Love, Friends, Family and Life in general.
