Dating without Novocaine

For twenty-nine-year-old Hannah O'Dowd, finding a decent man in Portland, Oregon, is like pulling teeth. Luckily, the self-employed seamstress has work that she loves and friends to ease the pain.

As she nears the big 3-0, Hannah wonders why her life doesn't look like she expected: where is her Volvo and her house, her husband and her golden retriever? Plainly something needs to change.

But as she trudges through her military-style campaign to find Mr. One-in-a-Million, Hannah finds that nothing could be worse than what she experiences... except maybe a trip to the dentist .
