"Daring to Date Again is a lively, witty, achingly honest, well-crafted account of one woman's emergence from twelve years of celibacy to become a sexual enthusiast in her sixties. You'll laugh-and sometimes worry!-as Ann jumps into bed with her Mr. Right-for-the- Moment parade. She wears her heart on her sleeve-or she wears nothing at all-and we share her adventures."

"Ann Anderson Evans details how a sophisticated lady of the Internet era opens doors to serious relationships [This is] a manual for sexy, smart people of a certain age, of either sex."


-Ford Burkhart, Pulitzer Prize Winner, former editor at The New York Times



"Daring to Date Again: A Memoir is a sassy internet dating memoir with an attitude. ... One doesn't expect wit along with the wisdom, but it's there. What's also unexpected is the spirit of adventure in a sixty-something who is willing to travel halfway across the world to Zimbabwe to meet an internet contact-but it's there, too. Most surprising of all is the quest for sexuality in older years: something few dating books even discuss. The result is best viewed as a rollicking train ride that leads to a few wrecks, excitement, and a lot of fun."
