“Book Descriptions: When her relationship with Buddhist beach boy Peter comes to an end, Carolyn, an independent, free-spirited, fiftysomething researcher, challenges herself to go on fifty dates to let go of Peter, explore different types of men, and find a more committed partner.
Set in the sensual New Age community of the SF Bay Area, Fifty First Dates After Fifty traces the adventurous path of Carolyn’s very universal quest for love. The goal of fifty dates pulls her forward through the highs and lows of dating—from the longing and agonizing, to the magical and ecstatic—while her heart soars, falls, and keeps on going. With the support of friends and lovers, she avoids settling for the wrong guy, discovers the type of man she wants, reconciles a love of independence and sex with her desire for commitment and emotional connection, and finds the right partner for her.
This upbeat memoir about the search for a partner in midlife is also a celebration of a woman’s unabashed sexuality. Explicit in places, funny in others, it offers a positive view of dating as an enjoyable journey of self-discovery and self-love along the way to one’s own Mr. Right.” DRIVE
