Reading The D Word is like hanging out with two wonderfully flawed friends who make you laugh even when it seems their worlds are falling apart. Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke have captured these women at a crossroads as they struggle to find love, happiness and fulfillment. You'll laugh, cry, and at times, want to slap some sense into them. But mostly you'll root for Elle and Jordan because you know them. They're just like you.”
