I've Never Been to Vegas, but My Luggage Has: Mishaps and Miracles on the Road to Happily Ever After Description
Wrong turns, humiliating flops, painful heartbreaks—and happiness? Yes, believe it or not, they can go hand in hand.
Blogger and author Mandy Hale, affectionately known as “The Single Woman” to her half-million social-media followers, is living an adventurous life that proves even our lowest lows and messiest mess-ups can point us toward our joy-filled destiny as single women.
In I’ve Never Been To Vegas, But My Luggage Has, Mandy delivers heart-to-heart, often hilarious stories from a life filled with love and loss, glamour and goose bumps, faith and friendship, big dreams and battle scars. She shares the bittersweet euphoria of her high-school romance, the panic-stricken cluelessness of her first day on a stressful job, and the foot-in-mouth horror of her red-carpet interview with a music legend.
Along the way, Mandy dollops personal anecdotes with encouraging insights. From thrilling first kisses to crushing break-ups, from soaring career milestones to promising flights that never quite got off the ground, she unfolds in often uproarious detail the zigzags along the path toward a pinnacle moment: sharing a table and a pinch-me-I’m-dreaming conversation with her lifelong hero.
In the end, Mandy turns Sin City’s infamous marketing slogan on its head: What happens in her life doesn’t stay in her life. She shares even her darkest moments in witty, winsome ways that make us not only feel her pain, but also laugh with her and apply her hard-won nuggets of inspiration to our own lives.
“Happily Ever After” might not look or feel quite like what we expect, but as Mandy is discovering—and as we can discover along with her—it is well within our reach.

Mandy's candid, personal and optimistic tales of her own life as she tackles the wanderers, the maybes, the violent, the exes in her world of dating and men was a refreshing story of hope.
She showed courage of her vunerability of spreading her message to women on how to navigate, forgive, let go and most importantly be your own hero, whilst humbly acknowledging that God is her source of strength.
We have all been there before, dated the non-committed one, dated the ex again and again that always held your heart, dated friends and even dated herself.
Through her own stories she shows that your own morals, values, ethics and integrity are paramount. Instead of chasing or crying about waiting for Mr.Forever, have the courage to sit with your loneliness, work through your heartbreak, take a honest look at yourself and work on being the very best version of yourself that you can be, and if Mr.Forever does come along, well he is the icing on your cake, but at the end of the day you still have cake and you don't need a Prince Charming for a happily ever after.
