This was a super cute, quick read that I got given for a review. It's about a grandmother at a retirement home called Diamond Cove, who is all about setting up her great-grandson on a date, except it's with the wrong woman. The woman that he actually likes finds out about the date and becomes broken hearted, unbeknownst to Grandma Betty. This plays out to her learning the truth and then divulging a new plan with the other retirement home residence. It is just cute and quirky and a light summer read. Heck, you can even read it in the winter and pretend you're in Florida yourself!
