Listen up, Lonely Hearts Club. Before you get all frothy about the holiday that rubs salt in the wounds of your failed attempts at love, take a page out of Beth Croce’s book on How to Mend a Broken Heart, will ya? Because I’m sure that all you need to cauterize the wound inflicted by your last lover is a spanky cute pin up guy/gal to dive in to your thoracic cavity, grab a hold of that bleeding aorta and squeeze. And oh, did I mention? Beth Croce is stationed down under, in Aussie, mate. So dig their killer accents. **swoooooon**
