That's the question 29-year old Candace Parker asks herself when the handsome, charming man of her dreams unceremoniously breaks up with her via text message - on the day of Bible Study! Candace - a staunch believer in Disney-like love stories is devastated. But she gives herself 10 days to get over "Charm" with the help of her two best friends - the idealistic "Dreamer", the take no prisoners "Stay Woke" - and her dog, Charlie, whom she imagines giving her advice with a side of eye roll. During these 10 days, Candace experiences every emotion from weepy sadness and blind outrage to self-doubt and quixotic hope. Just as Candace begins to pick herself back up, she receives another fateful text from Charm - "Hey, Beautiful!" and just like that, the overwhelming chemistry and strong feelings come flooding back. Will Candace set aside her pain and give Charm another chance? Or, will she remember the lessons she's learned and walk away for good? Give Me 10 Days is broken into two parts: a hilarious memoir about friendship and first love set in suburban Detroit; the second, a self-help section with Candace's hard-won tips and tricks for surviving heartbreak. The story will resonate with all women navigating their way through love and life.
