All Grown Up
by Vi Keeland
”Age is just a number to use to count all the years I’m going to love you.”
4 stars. This was so ridiculously good. I love a good age gap romance, bonus points for Older woman/Younger man since those seem to be the Unicorns of the genre and this was done really well.
The angst was really low level but there was still some feels to be had. Ford makes some discoveries that kinda shake him up and Valentina is still trying to just cope with her divorce and those feelings felt real and authentic. So did the characters. I loved Ford and Valentina a lot. Their chemistry was off the charts hot and I thought they both went through some fantastic development. I loved them as a couple and I loved them as individuals. Valentina is cautious and a bit closed off and Ford throws caution to the wind and likes to go with the flow. It made for some interesting dynamics between the two and I thought they were both likable and charming.
The ending was great and didn’t feel too over done or drawn out. It wrapped up when it needed to and the epilogue was really sweet and adorable.
Did I mention that Vi Keeland’s writing is great as well? I feel like that goes without saying but I thought I should mention it anyways. It’s very easy to get sucked into her stories. And so far her heroes have not let me down at all.
Overall, I really loved this one and I would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something on the lighter side with great characters and a swoon worthy romance.
