Should attending your ex-boyfriend's wedding be against the law? Brooke Miller is a funny, ever so quick witted, and intelligent Manhattan lawyer that makes a few hard-knock choices that lead to a complete quandary. Frisky, hopeful, and ever so in love with her sexy Scottish boyfriend, Brenda plans to attend her ex-boyfriend's wedding with boyfriend, Douglas, in tow. The trouble is that her ex-boyfriend, Trip, moved to La-La Land after college and now happens to be marrying one of Hollywood's most famous It girls. Ouch! Brooke plays with fate when she assumes that Douglas is on the verge of a proposal of his own. Days before the wedding, a horrible fight leaves Brooke single and date-less for the wedding. Can one girl face an ex-boyfriend's wedding alone? Can Brooke Miller concoct a plan to save face and win back the man of her dreams? The clock is ticking and there isn't much time until the big day. Using her gifts for research, law, and litigation, Brooke Miller has a plan that might just come close to breaking the law. SCOT ON THE ROCKS is a hilarious and entertaining novel. There are the classic elements of Chick-lit but this book isn't cookie-cut. Brenda Janowitz, has attended 3 ex-boyfriends' wedding and has worked as a lawyer. She has got the experience to create a believable tale of love, madness, and hope.

If you happen to fall in love with Brooke, Vanessa, and Jack, don't fret. Brenda Janowitz signed a two-book deal with Red Dress Ink. She is currently writing the sequel to SCOT ON THE ROCKS that should be published by Red Dress Ink in April of 2008. I have to say I can't wait!

SUMMARY

Attending your ex-boyfriend's wedding should be against the law.

When her ex-boyfriend, Trip, gets engaged to Hollywood's latest It Girl, Manhattan attorney Brooke Miller plans to attend the wedding. Who says a modern girl can't stay friends with her ex? Besides, Brooke's got her sexy Scottish fiance, Douglas, to take as her date. Okay, so maybe he's not exactly her fiance, but they're living together in his apartment, so she'll be getting the ring any minute, right? Wrong.

When a fight leaves her without a boyfriend (much less a fiance) just days before the wedding, Brooke faces the ultimate humiliation of attending her ex-boyfriend's nuptials alone. Desperate to find a replacement to fill Douglas' kilt, Brooke concocts an outrageous plan to survive the wedding and win the man of her dreams, all with her dignity ever-so-slightly intact.
