Odd CouplesLily Burana's I Love a Man in Uniform: a Memoir of Love, War, and Other Battles seems sure to both surprise and inspire.
In short, Lily's an ex-stripper (with Playboy shoot photos in her portfolio) who marries a U.S. Army major. Shortly after the couple ties the knot, Major Mike is deployed to Iraq. Mike's return from war -- and Lilly's adjustment to life as a military wife -- are fraught with problems. Yet both Lilly and Mike survive, as does their marriage.
Burana's is a gossipy memoir that is bitingly funny in places. It is more about successfully overcoming odd couple obstacles and finding better days ahead.
