Single women between the ages of twenty-five and forty-four are flocking to large cities in record numbers to compete for eligible bachelors. In many places in the United States single women out number single men by 20 to 30 percent. If you are one of the countless single women in America who has ever wished for your own personal dating coach, Good Date, Bad Date is the guide for you. Marla offers valuable advice for single women who are tired of trying to figure out the secrets to successful dating. Using real life examples from her clients' dates, she reveals what men are really thinking during and after a date.

Welcome to the world of Marla Martenson. The Cupid of Beverly Hills, she has
introduced countless couples who have gone on to get married and live happily ever after—so far. But for every success story, there are more dating disasters, high-maintenance clients, out-of-touch men (and women), and downright comical situations with which she has to contend.
In Diary of a Beverly Hills Matchmaker, Marla takes her readers for a hilarious romp through her days in an exclusive L.A. matchmaking agency and her daily struggles to keep her self-esteem from imploding in a town where looks are everything and money talks. From juggling the demands her out-of-touch clients and trying her best to meet the capricious demands of an insensitive boss to the ups and downs of her own marriage with a Latin husband who doesn't think that she is “domestic” enough, Marla writes with charm and self-effacement about the universal struggles that all women face in their lives. Readers will laugh, cringe, and cry as they journey with her through outrageous stories about the indignities of dating in Los Angeles, dealing with overblown egos, vicariously hobnobbing with celebrities, and navigating the wannabe-land of Beverly Hills. In a land where perfection is almost a prerequisite, even Marla can't help but run for the Botox every once in a while….

Marla's day might begin with an email like this:

Marla,
I hope you don't plan on charging me for the last two setups—Penny and Lydia. Let me make it crystal clear for you, even 5 pounds overweight is a deal killer.… I won't waste any more time on another date with a plump gal.

Clarence,
Penny and Lydia are both under 110 pounds—including implants. Marla facetiously refers to the dating service as the Double D—which doesn't stand for dream date—and often finds herself introducing SHBRs (short fat bald rich guys) to GDGDs (gosh darn gold-diggers) and, despite the odds, countless couples find that Marla has linked their hearts. The exasperating clients stand out, but many are terrific people, and you'll follow their dating stories with interest, as Marla struggles to work for a boss who requires her to cross ethical lines, pushing Marla to her limits.

A tiny spark is all it takes, and Marla goes from being vice-president of a multi-city enterprise to being unemployed

—which takes her career in matchmaking to a whole new level, all while staying true to her most authentic self.
