The Lifetime Television movie of Love Sick: Secrets of a Sex Addict will be re-broadcast on May 26. This movie is based on Sue's book, Love Sick.

I flew out to Vancouver for a few days to watch the filming. Sally Pressman, one of the stars of the Lifetime hit series Army Wives, is playing me. David James Elliott, who starred in the TV show JAGS, is also in the movie.

I thought you might like to see some photos of the shoot, on the left-hand column of the page.

I was given a two-word "walk-on" role!

LOVE SICK IS NOW AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK. Please click on the image of the bookjacket on the home page for ordering information.
