When Stephanie Klein hit her twenty-fourth birthday she thought she had everything she could possibly have wanted from life: a good job, a successful husb&, a Manhattan apartment & a baby on the way.

By the time she hit thirty it was all gone; her husband & her baby lost. She was left to start again with a whole new life & an entirely depleted cast of characters. Her only company was her ' Furkid' (the small brown dog she now shared a bed with). Her friend told her to get out dating again & to employ the sandwich principle
- keep one man on either side, & enjoy the interesting one in-between. So she set off, with much trepidation & wardrobe anxiety, to discover single sex all over again...

The weblog she kept of her new found freedom & sexual adventures became a sensation in the States. Her brilliantly funny, acerbic descriptions of love, life & dating bought her press & acclaim. Straight up & Dirty is Stephanie's funnier than comedy, truer than romance, sexier than fiction account of her journey.
