'With Just One Click' Book Examines Cyber Relationships
By: Kelsey Denette May. 23, 2011
As of 2011, there are over 500 million active Facebook users and half of them are logged in on any given day. Every 20 minutes over 2.7 million messages are sent, 10.2 million comments are made and nearly 2 million friend requests are accepted. WOW! And they said it wouldn't last.
Facebook has had an undeniable effect on the world. From the award-winning movie to the average ‘Joe,' it seems no one is immune. With a click of a mouse you can reconnect with a long lost love, stalk your ex or set up a girl's night out. In the thought provoking new novel, With Just One Click..., Amanda Strong follows three women whose lives are changed forever when they enter the cyber world of Facebook.
Based on real life events, Strong delves into the controversial world of cyber-relationships and proves it's all about the ‘ex.' Chloe Brennan receives a friend request from an ex she hasn't seen for 17 years. Morgan and EJ Davis have a solid marriage but jealousy creeps in when EJ is "friended" by his sexy ex. Brynn Haggerty is an unhappy wife and mother until she begins to find the time and attention she's been missing through an online relationship with her ex.
Insightful and controversial, With Just One Click explores the world of:
Social Networking - confirming a friend request may not be as innocent as it seems
Cyber-relationships - can you be ‘just friends' with an ex
Fidelity - is a cyber-relationship cheating on your partner
Friendship - is it really friendship if all your ‘dialogue' is online
Communication - how social networking is redefining the term
"Just remember," says Strong, "the ability to contact friends - and exes - with just one click opens up a world of endless opportunities to change your life for better, or worse."
With Just One Click... is available on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com and Lulu Books.
