The New Life Guide for Ex-Princesses
(That's you, Buttercup.)
Rambling about your woes to a potential employer will not nab you that much needed job, so shut up. A lot.
To release pent-up rage, seek out a hunky man-boy and wonk him. That's a joke. Don’t really do that. Chew gum. Or your tongue.
No job is too menial when you’re broke. Even if it smells like dog poop and mothballs. Money’s money.
Don't let your douche-bag ex-husband see you sweat. Ever.
Hold your head high when humiliation rears its ugly head.
Sometimes, into everyone’s life, a little troll-tossing must fall.
Help in the name of pity is okay—it's definitely okay from a gorgeous guy.
Discount chains can be your
moth-eaten pocketbook’s friend. (And yes, you must push your own cart.)
In your fight for survival, though you might be poor, do remember, you are a free woman.
Celebrate!
When approaching your first date in eons of dateless-ness, do yourself a solid, put a kibosh on the bitter and overly-sensitive crap, okay?
You’ll apologize a lot for your ridiculous behaviors, so why not just write out a generic plea for forgiveness? It’s a useful time-saver.
Sometimes secrets come back to bite you in your not so youthful butt.
Be the captain of your own Love Boat. Taking control of your desires is sexy, ladies. Ahoy, matey!
You'll never be happy if you allow fear to rule your life. So do yourself a skinny. Hunt that bitch down, net in hand, and catch it before it owns you.
Always remember that a princess in the process of sucking it up, is a warrior princess!

To make ends meet, Melina puts her dancing shoes to use as an instructor at Westmeyer—a private school for boy geniuses. Teaching a bunch of hormonal teenagers the waltz is trying, but the school’s sexy handyman proves to be an ample distraction. Drew McPhee is perfect, except for one thing: he doesn’t like dancing. Thankfully, the finesse Drew lacks on the floor is more than made up for by his skills in the bedroom. And after one steamy night, the ballroom diva is the one getting swept off her fee t…
