Guest Post: Susan Buchanan talks about Dating Dilemmas

Today I'm pleased to welcome Indie author Susan Buchanan to talk about her latest book, The Dating Game, and about dating dilemmas in general.  So I'll hand you over to Susan.

The idea for The Dating Game came from a friend who had joined a dating agency for professional people in Glasgow. Although none of the escapades or experiences Gill has in The Dating Game are those my friend had, the seed was sown! How does a busy, career-oriented woman in her late thirties, find a guy, and not only a guy, but the right guy? I wanted the relationships she had had and the dates she would have, to be as realistic as possible. As I love travelling, I always incorporate at least one foreign country into my books. You’ll have to read The Dating Game to find out where it is!

Ever have a break-up and then not manage to find another suitable partner? I’m sure it happens all the time. Most of us have been in that position at one point or another, whether or not we’ll admit to it, is something quite different! As with Gill, my heroine in The Dating Game, what invariably happens is your well-meaning friends pair you with unsuitable types. How can your friends not know you? Would they date a halitosis breathing jerk? Or an Adonis- like gym bore? Or a monosyllabic grunter? Nope!
