Age isn’t a number.

It’s a state of chaos.

When publicist Mia Andrews becomes the face of a viral disaster dubbed #PantyGate, her career implodes along with her reputation.

Now jobless and single, Mia lands in the last place she expected—her grandmother’s anything-but-quiet retirement community in Florida. It’s chaos. It’s hilarious. It’s exactly what she didn’t know she needed.

Even worse? The meddling retirees are determined to fix Mia’s love life. Somehow, they find time to play matchmaker—with not one but two bachelors under thirty-five.

But amid the mayhem, Mia’s learning that the best second chances come when—and where—you least expect them.

For fans of witty banter, lovable troublemakers, and slow-burn romance, this is the laugh-out-loud novel that proves love never gets old.

Favorite Quotes:

 

I stumble inside, as graceful as a giraffe on skates and twice as loud.

The man’s worth a fortune, and he proposed with a rock I couldn’t see without my glasses and a prenup smaller than his penis.

“That’s why I like my men like I like my drinks.” Grandma Helen hefts her nearly empty glass in the air. “Extra strong and gone by morning.”

Big talk from the lady who hasn’t invited a man into her room for so long, she’ll have to Google how…

The chime sets off a chain reaction, squealing and shuffling and hollers from members of our crew who don’t feel quite ready yet. It reminds me of my first apartment in Miami, where a flip of the light would send roaches running.

…feeling your feelings is not for the faint of heart.

My Review:

 

Another fun and delightfully amusing adventure with senior shenanigans tucked into a slow-burn romance between a pair of their grandchildren. This eclectic group was quite the handful. I reveled in their sass and pluck and looked forward to their next well-orchestrated rebellion, that’s just how I roll. Each character was authentically conjured, with originally quirky and well-fleshed-out personalities.

Cindi Madsen has superior observation skills and is undoubtedly highly perceptive to have created such well-nuanced women far beyond her own years. The writing style was smooth, engaging, well-polished, easy to follow, and sparked frequent smirks and giggle-snorts during perusal.

 

About the Author

Cindi Madsen is a USA Today bestselling author of contemporary romance and young adult novels. She sits at her computer every chance she gets, plotting, revising, and falling in love with her characters. Sometimes it makes her a crazy person. Without it, she’d be even crazier. She has way too many shoes, but can always find a reason to buy a pretty new pair, especially if they’re sparkly, colorful, or super tall. She loves music and dancing and wishes summer lasted all year long. She lives in Colorado (where summer is most definitely NOT all year long) with her husband, three children, an overly-dramatic tomcat, & an adorable one-eyed kitty named Agent Fury.
