Ellen meets Jim at a posh restaurant, hoping for an evening of fine wine and better conversation. Maria sets out on a walk with a man she's been looking forward to meeting. In First Date Stories, these women, and others, enter into initial liaisons with well-honed expectations—and come out on the other side with extraordinary tales to tell. Chances are, every woman in her mid-thirties and over who is seeking a loving companion has a first date tale of triumph or disaster. Each of the candid and memorable stories Jodi Klein shares here imparts a bit of wisdom—with the help of takeaway tips and inspirational quotes—to guide readers through what can be a baffling, intimidating, and sometimes lonely journey. Before a promising first date, or after an awful one, First Date Stories offers readers the reminder that being single should be celebrated, that not all first dates are created equal, and that every initial encounter has the possibility to become something long-lasting and wonderful.

Cassie Dunhill and her friends make a pact to marry the next guy they each date. What could possibly go wrong? Cassie Dunhill is sick of dating. It's been ten years and it's time, time to find The One. It's either that or buy a fetching habit and veil and abandon the whole thing. But Cassie believes in love, and she's not ready to give up yet. Cassie and her best friends make a pact that the next date they go on will be their One Last First Date. The pressure is on to find Mr. Right, and Cassie's the first to find him: Parker Hamilton. He's good-looking, smart, cultured--and a doctor. Despite his obvious credentials, Cassie's not taking any chances. She's vetted Parker so thoroughly she could offer some pointers to the CIA. Needless to say, he passes with flying colors. Things get complicated when Will Jordan, her irritating work colleague, muscles in on her dream job and her love life. Will is a typical guy, complete with nicknames for everyone, even Cassie. His good looks and relaxed, easy nature can be distracting. But Cassie can do without that kind of distraction right now, no matter how good Will looks with his shirt off. In the end, is there only One Last First Date?

An electrician lights up a woman’s life, a sister longs for her homeless brother, strangers dream of what might have been. Love lost, found and reclaimed. Love that’s romantic, familial, platonic and unexpected. Most of all, these stories celebrate love as it exists in real life: a silly remark that leads to a lifetime together, a father who struggles to remember his son, ordinary moments that burn bright.

A famous boss. A secret identity. And a hilarious road trip to love. Yes. Yes, Rosie does have a crush on Isaac, her YouTube-famous boss. Does she ever talk to him? Absolutely not. Crippling social anxiety can do that. But Rosie is nothing if not tenacious. Ignoring her friends' advice to just talk to him already (Nope, that's way too hard), she instead opts to pursue a virtual relationship with Isaac using a secret identity. The plan is genius. Online, Rosie has social skills she'd never dream of having in person. She's possibly even cool. If Isaac can just get to know her, he'll see how amazing she is. But then a spontaneous road trip throws Rosie and Isaac together, and their virtual and in-person lives collide. (Eleven hundred miles in a seventy's era VW hatchback? What could possibly go wrong?) Much to Rosie's surprise, she doesn't constantly humiliate herself. Conversation is easy, and their chemistry? It's pretty much off the charts. But every road trip is bound to hit a speed bump or two. Will Rosie's secret identity be the thing that brings them together? Or the thing that tears them apart?
