PRAISE FOR WINE IN MY SIPPY CUP:
"Fabulously funny and amazingly candid book about a real woman who we all can relate to. I laughed so hard at times and yet I could feel all the love hope and frustrations written so brilliantly in this book."
"This book reminded me a little of Erma Bombeck's books. So real yet so funny. I don't ever remember laughing so hard."
"Dove has a knack for tapping into the inner thoughts of every mother who has struggled with the pull between herself and her children, between work and home, between domesticity and sensuality."
"Beautiful and funny."
A sophisticated, put together career woman prior to having kids, now Liz Cartwright is lucky to go to the bathroom by herself, much less get out of the house wearing matching shoes and a clean shirt. While she is preoccupied with the sometimes mind-numbing responsibilities of motherhood, her husband is becoming increasingly distant and preoccupied with work, giving Liz the distinct impression that she is losing her husband along with her sense of identity. Armed with a book on spicing up her sex life purchased at a sex toy party and the help of her three best girlfriends, Liz embarks on an all-out attempt to rejuvenate her marriage and find personal fulfillment.
However, things in Liz’s life have a tendency to fail with hilarious results, and her attempts to woo her husband are no exceptions. Despite numerous setbacks—a pantiless tennis court seduction gone awry, a stolen vibrator and an unfortunate incident involving a thong—Liz is determined to reclaim her romantic mojo, until a chance encounter with her first love and a hobby that inadvertently turns into a job opportunity make Liz reevaluate what love inside marriage means and the price she is willing to pay to reclaim her sense of self-worth.
