Synopsis

She was the "Love Doctor" in Pillow Talk and the family guru in Happily Ever After. Now Karen Linamen is mixing up a brew of joy potions in Just Hand Over the Chocolate and No One Will Get Hurt. People everywhere understand the importance of chocolate in a woman's life. Like chocolate, these stress busters, hope builders, and joy boosters will have women feeling better in no time. Hand Over the Chocolate deals with a woman's emotional, physical, and spiritual needs, offering the same combination of humor and practical wisdom Linamen's fans have come to love. The author also openly shares her struggle with depression, providing women with ideas for starting on the path toward emotional health. Readers will soon be laughing out loud and embracing the motto "Less stress, more fun!" as they try the ideas in this joy-enhancement manual. As with Linamen's previous books, her newest makes a great gift for Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, and birthdays, but it is especially appropriate as a pick-me-up gift for any woman who is in a rut, is stressed out, or has just eaten an entire box of chocolates in one sitting! Every page is packed with laughs and encouragement, without a single calorie included.
