<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Carolyn, an independent, free-spirited, fifty-something researcher, challenges herself to go on fifty dates to find a committed partner. Navigating the highs and lows of dating within the SF Bay Area sensual New Age community, her universal quest for love becomes a sexy adventure of self-discovery and self-love along the way to a man who matches her spirit.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>What does a free-spirited, fifty-something professional do when she breaks up with her non-committal Buddhist boyfriend and longs for a life partner? She holds a 'letting go' ceremony with the boyfriend, challenges herself to go on 50 dates, takes a few lovers, and voila! Finding Mr. Right becomes a sexy dating project. <p/> Set in the SF Bay Area world of personal growth workshops and spiritual ceremonies, <i>Fifty First Dates after Fifty</i> traces the adventurous path of Carolyn's universal quest for love. The goal of fifty pulls her forward through the highs and lows of dating--magical and ecstatic, pining and painful--while her heart soars, falls, and keeps on going. Buoyed by her dating project, 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 unique partner for her. <p/> This upbeat memoir about the search for a partner in midlife is also a celebration of a woman's unabashed sexuality. Erotic 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.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A memoir about seeking romance in midlife, Carolyn Lee Arnold's <i>Fifty First Dates after Fifty</i> is genuine as it recounts a period of trying out new relationships and investigating spirituality....
