What would you do if you woke up in bed with someone you had spent the night having sex with and forgot his or her name? Think you?re doomed? This book has some pretty good ideas about how to get yourself out of that one. Know when to fake a seizure to stop a wedding? If you were having an affair, what would you do to increase your chances of not getting caught?
Answers to these questions along with helpful hints and ideas about your sex and dating life can be found in this little black book. So the next time you hear, ?Is it hot in here, or is it just you?? and you don?t know what to say, you?ll be wishing you had read this book today.
