All Grown Up by Vi Keeland
5.0

Hey Mrs. Peabody, can you see my future??!!

I've had this book since released but it seems like I have a never ending pile to read.

Val is 37 and starting over. Ford is 25 and looking for "something". It's something we so often in reverse and many don't consider is wrong. But these two got paired through "Match.com" so it has to be right?! Right?!

There was so much to this story I felt on a personal level. The struggle of a failed marriage, losing oneself in that marriage and the steps to starting over. The pain of dealing with your ex and finding your worth again. Finally feeling like you again and having your child ask if they can ever have their family back together. Valentina has so much strength and from the moment she "speaks" to Donovan there is this comfort and safety she didn't think she could have again. Ford has lived a life of a 30-something in a 25 olds body. He loves his sister dearly, surmised to keep his parents company thriving and knows who is. But there is something missing that he finds in a cannonball. There is no other way to put it but that I fell in love with him along with Val. I could read the story over and over and find new little things to treasure.

I've started my journey already but I have yet to meet my Ford. Idk if he's younger or older but I hope I find him. Really wish Mrs. Peabody has answers for me!!!
