The War Council

By Ann Shepphird

Book Overview

Ever wonder what it would be like to be able to hire the team from "Mission: Impossible" to solve your relationship woes? A young communications professor attempts to make that happen in "The War Council."
After the love of her life leaves her for a job on the other side of the world, Professor Maggie McGrew is devastated. To Maggie, his leaving-and not taking her with him-was just not logical.
Instead of merely mourning the breakup, Maggie pours herself into the study of love. She comes up with the concept of a paramilitary-style relationship counseling service that she calls "The War Council," because, as they say, all is fair in love and war. Maggie then enlists her friends and colleagues-from fellow professors to a university psychologist and the rugby coach-to serve in a variety of roles on the council.
Maggie's best friend Kathy (the psychologist) hates everything about the War Council but reluctantly agrees to be a member. Kathy also wants to help Maggie get over the boyfriend that left so she uses some of Maggie's own concepts to set her up with a new beau. When Maggie discovers the truth about the new man in her life and Kathy's role in bringing them together and the ex-boyfriend suddenly returns, she learns that love is anything but logical.
In this humorous look at love-the first in the University Chronicles series-each of the main characters tells their version of the events that surround the creation of the War Council and the effect it had on their lives.
