Synopsis
Curvy girl, Charlene Winters, had it
all: the great career, wonderful friends and a dreamy fiancé.
With her wedding day just three weeks
away, Charlene is dealt a devastating blow. Suddenly finding her life, hopes
and plans in tatters, the jilted bride sinks into despair and a tub of Ben and
Jerry’s cookie dough. With the heartache of her fiancé’s infidelity still
fresh, Charlene’s whisked away by her friends on a life-changing holiday. But
how will this big fish cope now that she’s back in the dating pond and
surrounded by slender trouts with Botox lips?
Frustrated by best friend Adam thwarting
her attempts at romance, and her girls Vanessa and Dana eager to set her up
with a boy toy, Charlene decides the time for change is upon her. What she
needs is a change of scenery, a change of dress size and maybe, a change of
heart.
Excerpt
(Optional) WARNING: SWEARING AND ADULT CONTENT
And
then it dawned on me. If Brad wasn’t getting off on my jelly parts, then whose
jelly mould was he filling instead?
“Oh.
My. God. Who is she?”
Adam
had taken a seat on my pastel pink sofa and his eyes were burning into me as I
held my breath, waiting for the reply.
“What?
What do you mean who is she?”
I
snorted a laugh.
“Now
who needs to be honest? I’m not an idiot Brad. You’re not fucking me and I know
you aren’t self-pleasuring. We both know how you hate the mess and all. So
don’t bother pretending like you’re not screwing some skank. I should probably
get fucking tested. Do you keep your clothes on with her to avoid all the icky sex sweat too?”
That
seemed to just make him angry.
“She
is not a skank!”
I
knew it! I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! Oh the arsehole-ism knows no bounds!
Not only was I jilted, dumped and fat, but I was also cheated! Merry Christmas
Charlene!
“You
dick! You complete and total dick! How long!? Who is she? I have a right to
know!”
He
sighed deeply in a self-pitying way as though it were hard for him to speak.
Pfft. He’d get no sympathy from me. He’d given me a ring and now I would give
him the finger. Metaphorically speaking of course.
“Uh,
Charlie?”
I
turned around and held my hand over the receiver as I snapped at Adam.
“Shhh.
Can’t you see I’m in the middle of being crushed? Can’t a girl get dumped in
peace anymore?”
He
made a gesture as though he were zipping his mouth shut and leaned back in his
seat.
“She’s
a woman from work. We went out for drinks one evening after work. We were
celebrating a huge win on a case. One thing led to another and…”
“And
you had a minor memory lapse in which you forgot you were engaged!? You are
such an asshole!”
“I
never meant for it to happen, Charlene. It just did. I’m sorry and I would have
preferred you to have never found out but I couldn’t marry you when I’m in love
with Aneska.”
The
skank had a name. Aneska. Sounded like
some sort of medicinal cream you rubbed on a bad nappy rash or irritation.
Right now, that’s exactly what she was. A pain in my arse!
“I
hate you. I hate you so fucking much.”
“Please
try to understand, Charlene. I’m doing this for both of us.”
I
laughed.
“Oh,
how silly of me. I should have thanked
you for shagging your colleague. It was such a wonderful and sweet gesture for
you to make. It’s the best Christmas gift I could ever have asked for. Truly. But next year, I’d love for you
to stick your dick in a live plug socket! It’ll leave you just as shocked and
burning as I am right now! It would be the best gift ever.”
I
cast my eye at Adam who had crossed his legs and cleared his throat a little.
He was clearly imaging how that sort of connection might feel. Shame Brad
couldn’t have done the same. If he’d have kept his fucking legs crossed, I
wouldn’t currently want to hack his dick off with a rusty kitchen knife. Meat
and two veg, coming right up!
