SummaryWhen the other woman is you... Dear Confused-do what I say, not what I do!
Lizzie Ford is the hippest member in a long line of
venerable advice-givers
known as Agony Aunts. But when the line between her
personal and
professional life begins to blur she realizes that she's
not practicing what
she preaches. Lizzie needs help, but who does an Agony Aunt
turn to for
advice? Jane Sigaloff spins a delightfully amusing and
witty tale that will appeal to anyone who has traveled down
that road paved
with good intentions only to find themselves caught up in
relationship hell. Dear Vacuum Sealed-check your "best before" date before
opening in public.
She's not quite sure how it happened, but Lizzie Ford is
London's most popular
Agony Aunt-doling out practical, down-to-earth advice to
women about everything
from g-spots and oral sex to relationships and personal
crises. So she finds it
somewhat ironic that an honest-to-goodness D-celebrity like
herself-she has a radio
show and a magazine colurnn-who counsels others on their
sex lives has been sitting
on the bench for three years waiting to get back in the
game. Dear Home Wrecker-unless you're a tricycle, three is one
wheel too many.
So Lizzie can't believe her good luck when she meets Matt
Baker at her office
Christmas party. They hit it off immediately and soon find
themselves deeply in love.
There's only one problem-Matt's wife may not be happy with
this new arrangement.
Lizzie is certainly less than enthused when Matt finally
informs her of his marital
state-"You've got a wife and I've got principles," she
tells him.
Dear Jekyll & Hyde-s**t or get off the pot!
But principles don't take you out to dinner or keep you
warm in bed at night, and
Lizzie soon takes up with Matt again when he tells her that
he is about to leave his
wife-who is more concerned with her career than their
marriage. The strange thing
is that even while she is hoping that Matt will get a
divorce, she is actively helping a
writer to her column save her crumbling marriage-a marriage
that bears more than a
passing resemblance to Matt's. Can you be a home saver and
a home wrecker-saint
and sinner-at the same time? What would Lizzie's Agony Aunt
persona tell her
Other Woman half? Would her Other Woman half even listen?
