Book Description
No one is perfect―but everyone can fake it
Let’s get real. At one point or another, every woman has had to fake it―how else would we get everything done in a mere twenty-four hours? Fake It makes all those time-sucking tasks―such as doing the laundry, baking a homemade dessert for a school fundraiser, and maintaining a socially acceptable level of personal hygiene―seem effortless. With more than 100 shortcuts and wonderfully constructed white lies, you’ll be able to fake it all, including:
- An immaculate bathroom when the in-laws visit
- Flawless skin for that big night out
- Liking a crappy dinner at a friend’s house
- A tidy car on carpool day
- Knowing the answer to your client’s question
- And yes, of course, faking an orgasm
So whether you’re asked for your opinion about a stomach-turning outfit, really not feeling it in bed, or just too tired to clean the house, Fake It will give you the foolproof advice you need to get through all of life’s situations.
