Then her bossy big sister decides to place a personal ad for her, and the wild ride begins. "A hilariously original tale about dating and its place in a modern woman's life."- BookPage "Can another novel about a 40-year-old divorcee creating a new life for herself actually be of interest? Surprisingly, yes . . . this novel is a hoot." - The Boston Globe "Funny and pitch-perfect." - Chicago Tribune "This utterly charming second novel by Cook is a fun read, perfect for whiling away an afternoon on the beach." - Library Journal "'Eternally hopeful book reviewer seeks wildly witty novel on singles scene/personal ads. Stylish prose and sense of humor preferred. Looking for fun, not longterm entanglement. Must love readers.' Respondents to such an ad might include Claire Cook, whose new novel, Must Love Dogs, tells the story of a down-to-earth divorcee seeking companionship through the personals. . ." - USA Today "Cook dishes up plenty of charm." - San Francisco Chronicle "[A] laugh-out-loud novel....a light and lively read for anyone who has tried to re-enter the dating scene or tried to `fix up' somebody else." - Boston Herald "[A] tart slice-of-the-single-life...breezy first-person narration...fast-paced" - Publishers Weekly "If Must Love Dogs is any indication of her talents, readers will hope that Claire Cook will be telling breezy summer stories from the South Shore of Massachusetts for seasons to come."- The Washington Post
