“Ford’s Sex And The City-esque exploration of four decades of love and marriage, affairs and divorce, and the parenting and step-parenting nightmares that go with them is a triumph. Hope-filled and life-affirming, it’s a Must-Read for any woman worried about life after 40.”
THE SUNDAY POST

The award-winning, heart-moving, In Search of Mr Darcy: Lessons Learnt In The Pursuit of Happily Ever After is a hilarious Nora Ephron-style, unfiltered dating memoir. It follows a super-independent woman on a real-life Sex and The City-like adventure through four decades of relationships amid life's messiest moments as she searches for Mr Darcy. Yup, that elusive literary Prince Charming we have been all but promised. But hold up, life isn't a fairy tale…and it sure as heck isn't a Jane Austen novel.

Writing with searing honesty, wry humor and endless warmth, Christina Ford dives headfirst into the colorful, intimate story of marriage(s), divorce(s), affairs, friends, frenemies, addiction, body image, sexual predators, and the often thankless task of single-parenting and step-parenting. In Search of Mr Darcy isn't just a book about love and loss; it's a survival guide for steering the treacherous waters of adulthood.

For anyone who has ever wondered if there is life after divorce, sex after forty, or if they will ever find love again. The answer is, damn straight…to all of it.
