It seems a bit unusual to me that my kitty, who has been on a diet for about 2 maybe 3 months, has somehow gotten fatter. Even the pup has been helping out with the cat’s weight loss by frequently eating all his food. Kitty gets no treats, no people food, and he is indoor only, so he isn’t running off to the neighbors to sneak a treat from them. My neighbors probably wouldn’t feed him anyway. They would just tell him to jog around the block or something. It must be the water! That might be what is causing me to be a little fluffier than I want as well. I need to look into this.
Year of the Chick
Romi Moondi
Genre: Humor & Entertainment | Romance
FREE for a limited time
[Book 1 in the “Year of the Chick” series. There’s a bit of a cliffhanger to end this book, but the sequel addresses any unanswered questions]
An awkward family homecoming at Christmas. A humiliating public weigh-in, with two judging parents as the audience. The announcement of a deadline for arranged marriage doom. And that’s just the first two chapters.
In “Year of the Chick,” Romi Narindra must find love before her parents find her a husband (a seemingly absurd concept that’s the norm in many cultures).
To escape her fate, Romi wades through the waters of secret-dating, where self-consciousness is at an all-time high, and experience at an all-time low. It’s the sort of thing that would turn almost anyone into a man-crazy freak with romance tunnel-vision, and that’s exactly what happens to her. All the while, a lack of inspiration in her corporate job leads Romi to her love of writing, in what quickly becomes a man-quest play-by-play.
From whiskey-breath scum bags to uni-brow creeps and everything in between, Romi and her wingmen come up empty time after time. And that’s when she meets a fellow writer. On the Internet. So will it be arranged marriage doom, or an Internet affair that’s not as creepy as “To Catch a Predator”? Time will tell in the “year of the chick,” a twelve-month quest to find love.
Tick-tock.
