A fun read... you follow the year after Jo's divorce as she wades back into the ocean of dating.

I have to start by warning you that this book does deal with infidelity and if you are a survivor as I am it may trigger you.
That being said, I really enjoyed this book. The author had a great grasp of what a betrayed spouse goes through after finding our that her wayward spouse has cheated. The emotional rollercoaster, starting over, dealing with kids and family, it was all there.
While it dealt with all these emotions it was still a lighthearted read and I found myself cheering for Jo when she started dated and finding her strength.
I really enjoyed this book.

A fairy tale for grown-ups! Moore's endearing exuberance and sense of humor are seductive, while the male cast and sex scenes are trashy good fun.

When Jo's husband, Jeff, decides that he "can't imagine life without" Candy, he's not referring to sugary confections. So he trots off with his 23-year-old secretary, with whom he had been having an affair for six months. Jo is appropriately devastated at the break-down of her 10-year marriage, but, despite her self-proclaimed status as a "nightmare date"--thirtysomething with children--suitors are clawing their way to her door. Her younger brother's best friend confesses a longtime crush, a traffic accident yields a date with the bad driver, and her multimillionaire client (Jo is an interior designer) tries to woo her through her children by taking them all to a Britney Spears concert. But British journalist and television host Moore's debut novel is titled Four play, and rounding out the quartet of suitors is Jeff, who sees the error of his ways and begs to be forgiven.

British GQ called the book a "modern-day Jane Austen romp," which might make Austen turn in her grave, but it is a perfectly readable, fast-paced, humorous tale, ideal for summer-reading fun.

Funny, cute book...I really enjoyed it..Jo is a fun character, surrounded by fun characters, could be very poignant among the laughs. Good book.
