Sex dates, red flags & other bad decisions

After the shared experiences in “Swing, Baby”, a new chapter begins for Leona.

Between dating apps, sex dates, swinger clubs, and wild party nights, she throws herself back into single life. She enjoys her independence, gathers new experiences, and ignores the occasional red flag that would actually be hard to miss. It’s about exciting encounters, big expectations, bad decisions, and men who definitely didn’t deserve a leading role.

“Single, Baby – Sex, Red Flags and Other Bad Decisions” is an honest story about desire, loneliness, disappointments, and the sometimes chaotic search for yourself. Direct, personal, and unfiltered, Leona talks about the moments when freedom feels amazing—and the ones when it feels damn lonely.

A book about sex dates, feelings, and clear red flags

“Single, Baby” speaks openly about sexuality without turning it into a perfect fantasy. The encounters are exciting, awkward, funny, intense, and sometimes sobering. It’s about desire, but also about expectations, boundaries, insecurities, and the emotional impact of seemingly no-strings-attached sex dates.

Because even if both supposedly just want to have fun, that doesn’t automatically mean no feelings will develop.

Leona meets men who seek closeness and then disappear again. Men who promise great things but take hardly any responsibility for their behavior. Men whose red flags are so obvious they should be impossible to miss—unless you’re already sitting naked with them in the hot tub.

With plenty of self-irony, she describes the situations she ends up in. She doesn’t hide her own mistakes, nor the moments when she consciously goes against her gut feeling. That makes her story not only entertaining, but also painfully relatable.

A sequel for everyone who has read “Swing, Baby”—but still a standalone, intimate look into modern single life in Vienna for anyone who’s ever spotted a red flag and still thought: Ah, it’ll be fine.

Open, direct, sharply observed, and with a solid dose of self-irony. For anyone who’s ever stayed too long even though, deep down, everything was already screaming “Run!”

Brutally honest instead of romantically sugarcoated

This book is not a classic love story where, after a few misunderstandings, the perfect man shows up. Nor is it a dating guide with ten simple rules for a happy relationship.

“Single, Baby” tells how complicated modern relationships, casual sex, and emotional needs can really be. About situations where you feel strong and independent—and a few hours later you’re waiting for a message that never comes. About men who know exactly which words to use. And about the realization that desire doesn’t automatically mean being seen.

Leona doesn’t just observe the men she meets. She also questions herself. Why does she ignore certain warning signs? Why does emotional distance sometimes feel more exciting than real availability? Why do certain patterns repeat even though you recognized them long ago?

Between all the bad decisions, a personal development begins as well. Leona learns to take her own needs more seriously, to notice boundaries more clearly, and to distinguish between real closeness and short-term attention.
