"Contrary to the rumors, prenups enhance marriage, author says. Arlene Dubin
knows prenuptial agreements aren't Hallmark cards, but she thinks
they get a bad rap. It's why she wrote Prenups for Lovers. Prenups

in her living room along with several other mementos from her wedding
10 years ago to Bud Rosenthal, a marketing consultant in the movie
industry."
