Cheerfully irreverent, bitingly funny, and filled with romantic charm, Cara Tanamachis The Second Youre Single is all about navigating the most romantic month of the year, and how love always seems to arrive when you least expect it. Freelance writer Sora Reid believes in inertia. Shes the odd one out in a close-knit family of go-getters, including her Japanese-American mom, who hints about her need to lose weight, and her soon-to-be married, overachieving younger sister, who needs her to have a date for the wedding, since a wedding party couples dance with their Scottish great uncle Bob simply wont do. For Sora, minimal input, minimal expectations is the way to go. Shed rather stay at home with her insufferable neighbor and her adorable pitbull. The one thing that disrupts her inertia: an intense dislike for Valentines Day. What is it with the commercial love machine? Why do we pin our hopes on one romantic day, when staying home with a package of bacon and a bottle of tequila would be way better? Soras been betrayed and disappointed more than once and her heart is starting to feel like her Grandma Mitsuyes antique Japanese ceramic bowl, with its many gold-filled cracks. When her pledge to stay single in February inspires readers to #gosolo, Sora has a responsibility to empower her readers. But relationships arent built to last, so it shouldnt be that hard. Right? Enter Jack Mann. A muscle-bound baker who looks like he lifts logs on the weekends, Sora hasnt thought of Jack since they were in elementary school together. When they see each other at the local grocery store and the attraction hits hard, Sora knows she has to shut it down, quick . She cant #gosolo AND get the guy. She cant let down her readers. And relationships always end, so why should Jack be any different-even though hes confounding all her long-held expectations of love? Riotous, whip-smart, and original. Read this happy-making book if you love yourself. --Jayci Lee, Author of Booked on a Feeling Cara Tanamachi lives near Chicago with her husband and five children (two by biology and three by marriage), and their 85-pound Goldendoodle, Theodore.

The University of Pennsylvania (Go Quakers!) grad worked as a newspaper reporter, and then published many novels under the name Cara Lockwood, including Dixieland Sushi , I Do (But I Dont) , and Pink Slip Party . A former single mom, she spent eight years dating (hilariously and awkwardly) before finding the love of her life on Bumble (yes, Bumble!). She believes we all could use a little more happily ever after.
