You Know He's a Keeper: Happy Endings and Horror Stories from Real Life Relationships

Women who have troubles deciding whether the men they meet are self-styled, caring""keepers"" or preoccupied, selfish""losers"" may find this collection of nearly 200 anecdotes amusing, if not enlightening. Most of the stories read like your girlfriend's liquor-lubricated gossip on nightmares and loves past, but some stand out: the""Amtrak Gigolo"" who picked up sleek, professional black women all along the Eastern seaboard, or the""Modern-day Sir Galahad"" who offered up his jacket for his stomach flu-ridden girlfriend to puke in during a bumpy cab ride. Although these part sentimental, part dreadful memories won't keep women from falling for the mama's boys and mildly crazy men of the world, they are a fun, ephemeral Valentine's Day reminder that both good and bad boys abound.
