Publisher: Samuel French Ltd


Cheryl and Stan, two individuals navigating the aftermath of significant loss, find themselves at a crossroads in their romantic journeys. Cheryl, a widow of two years, grapples with the void left by her husband's absence, while Stan, freshly divorced, carries the weight of a broken marriage. Tired of the fruitless endeavors of traditional blind dates, their trusted friends Lori and Dave intervene, suggesting they explore the realm of online dating. Undeterred by their skepticism, Cheryl and Stan reluctantly agree to give it a shot, thanks to the relentless persuasion of their friends. However, little do they know that their journey into the digital dating world would be filled with hilarious mishaps, heart-wrenching setbacks, and a plethora of dating advice from the most unlikely sources—their friends.

With a mix of trepidation and hope, Cheryl and Stan create profiles on the new dating website, Friends, Love, or Whatever. Armed with a barrage of questionable tips and dubious anecdotes, they embark on a comedic adventure of online dating. From cringe-worthy profile pictures to awkward first messages, they encounter a myriad of challenges that test their patience and resilience. Heartbreak and rejection become familiar companions as they navigate through a sea of potential matches, each offering a different version of themselves.

Despite the odds, Cheryl and Stan refuse to give up on their quest for love. They learn to embrace their flaws, laugh at their dating mishaps, and appreciate the unique opportunities that online dating presents. Through their trials and tribulations, they discover the importance of self-reflection, communication, and patience in building meaningful connections. They also realize that love can blossom in unexpected places, and that sometimes, the best offers come from unexpected sources.

In the end, Cheryl and Stan's online dating journey teaches them valuable lessons about love, resilience, and the power of friendship. They emerge from the experience with a renewed sense of confidence, a deeper understanding of themselves, and a willingness to embrace the unpredictable path that leads to true love. Their story serves as a testament to the fact that even in the face of adversity, love can find a way to bloom, and that sometimes, the best surprises are found in the most unexpected places.
