All Grown Up by Vi Keeland
4.0

4 'my turn' stars!

Being of a certain ‘mature’ age I found that I could really appreciate this older woman – younger man romance.

I felt for Valentina, she had spent so many years of her life sacrificing herself for her marriage and her son. Her husband had left her for a much younger woman and destroyed any self-confidence that Val had left. Her best friend, Eve, opens up an online dating profile for her and there she connects with 'Donovan' and a relationship starts to grow through messaging.

Ford Donovan…sigh. He's a 'young' 25 year old who had to grown up fast after his parents death, taking care of his younger sister. I love how he is the one that continues to pursue Val.

"You look in the mirror and see the woman your ex made you feel like - a thirty-seven-year-old mom. I look at you and see what you actually are - a sexy-as-fuck woman who has a killer rack, curver I want to memorize in the dark, and a laugh that's contagious."


The one thing that irked me while reading was that it took so long for Valentina to come to grips with falling for a younger man and him having such strong feelings for her. Her insecurities coming to the surface a few too many times.

Overall and enjoyable read that I would gladly read again. I would be interested to find some more books with a similar trope.
