My Break-Ups, A Lunkhead's Love Story

Jacob Van Eck details the break-ups in five stages of his life. Each of these phases has a story that exposes his emotions. The first is a pre-adolescent separation that doesn't even hurt. His second, however, comes at an age that shakes his heart, since he is now old enough to make an emotional connection. Jacob is a born romantic who fights against the odds for an everlasting love.

Throughout the stories, and as he gets older, Jacob discovers that break-ups hurt from both sides, regardless of the reason. And there are different reasons for each one. He experiences the denial that it's really happening and replays events that could have helped avoid the end result. He feels the guilt for his part and hopes for reconciliation. In the end he does what's necessary to avert a final break-up with the love of his life, but is it too late?
Quadriplegic author, David doc Robertson, who is confined to a wheelchair, pledges HALF of his royalties from this novelette to the Fight Against Cancer. He explains that the losses of a sister-in-law and a close friend to cancer inspired him to make the contribution. "Because of my condition, this is about all I can do, and I hope it helps." In MY BREAK-UPS, he delivers an excellent novelette!
