She went on forty-four blind dates before she found her husband. This is the book about everything in between.
44 Blind Dates is Lilah Jeanette Smith's funny, honest, sometimes heartbreaking guide to real love — for anyone who's tired of dating advice that doesn't actually work. Part memoir, part practical playbook, it walks through the marriage she left, the year and a half she spent doing the work on herself, and the forty-four dates — jet skis, mall meltdowns, an ex-husband's old acquaintance, a man in a Hawaiian shirt — that led her to the one that finally stuck.
No fairy tale. No "it happens when you stop looking." Just a real system for dating with intention, staying safe, and not giving up until you find your person.
Keep going. Your number might be four, or fourteen, or forty-four.
