The Hard Way 1st edition

Lucy Venier changes careers and boyfriends as often as she changes her socks. Although gifted with wit and creativity, the one thing Lucy lacks is focus. While being someone she?s not, be it crime reporter or sleep-deprived law student, Lucy?s one constant is art. Her insatiable desire to create is fueled by her offbeat life experiences. But unfortunately by day Lucy must hide her creativity under her business suit.

As if figuring out her life isn?t hard enough, all of Lucy?s friends are getting married. But Lucy?s not sure if she?s capable of living happily ever after. With a string of loser former flames, giving up seems to be the best option. But then there?s Ben?Lucy?s Mr. Right who comes at completely the wrong time. But is he truly The One? Did Lucy miss her chance?

In the tradition of The Girls? Guide to Hunting and Fishing, The Hard Way is a scrapbook of stories from Lucy?s life. As she discovers more about the people around her, will she finally begin to understand herself?
