Description
“There's also a twenty percent chance you'll contract herpes. What's the chance you'll contract love?” At age 37, Jason Purdue is done with sex in general and romance in particular.
He’s even happy that the sperm he sent to a cryogenics lab to be frozen is set for termination. Or is it? When an email informs Jason that his sperm is missing, he begins a frantic, cross country search for the possible recipient. Is it free spirited Sheila, enigmatic Christina, or serious Gabrielle, who is carrying Jason’s future baby? And why does he need to find out anyways? Searching for Swimmers is a story about birth, bewilderment and bibacity for the cynical underachiever in all of us.

An interesting story-line. Puts a different spin on the cryobanks and associated processes. The two male characters show an incredible amount of growth throughout the novel.
I would have like clarity on two points: Sheila and Louise's baby and Sheila's parents; what happened to the cryobank - any other mixups? Oh, and having Grace pop up again would have been awesome.
All in all, not a bad read - way better than what I was expecting.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me to read this book..
