How To Ruin Your Boyfriend's Reputation

by Simone Elkeles

Publication Release Date: November 29, 2009

From Amazon.com:

Guess who’s jetting off to the Holy Land this summer! Yes, it’s me—Amy Nelson-Barak. I’ve volunteered for ten days of military training in Israel with my friends. The Sababa brochure said it would be a “fun” summer experience. Okay, so I didn’t sign up to prove I’m not a princess … I did it to surprise my hot Israeli boyfriend stationed at the same base.

Too bad nobody told me:
• It’s hot in the Negev desert … like, so hot your makeup melts off and you get under-boob sweat spots.
• You can’t sleep in until 11 a.m.
• You shouldn’t kill bees with your flatiron—don’t ask.
• Peeing in a hole isn’t easy (when you’re a girl)—double don’t ask.

When I find out our team leader is my boyfriend Avi, I’m totally psyched…until I learn he has to treat me like all the other recruits. Can you say OY VEY!
