Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 I have friends who are CEOs of corporations and volunteers for nonprofits. But if you gave them each a glass of pinot noir and a cushy ottoman, they would regale you with stories of the time they went bonkers. #2 Ari was always thoughtful and protective. He was also extremely seductive, and I became increasingly dependent on him. He proposed to me in a castle in Ireland, and when I said yes, he got down on one knee and presented me with a sparkling emerald ring. #3 I began to lose weight that summer, as I couldn't eat or sleep. I was becoming more and more depressed, and I couldn't figure out why. I eventually rented a house overlooking the ocean in Santa Monica, and began blending smoothies, beach power walking, and having dates. #4 I was picking lint off the sun-faded couch when I decided to check the answering machine in our New York apartment. I heard a message from Veronica from Bahamian Charters, who wanted to confirm my private charter flight that weekend. I felt like a Chihuahua after the neighborhood bully lit the firecracker in its ass
