Sugar and Spice

Divorced and on the wrong side of 50, Savannah has perfected the art of fading into the background. As a caterer, she sets out delicious food, then vanishes. When her housemate's boyfriend stays over, she hides behind noise-canceling headphones. But now that her housemate is engaged, she can't be the invisible third wheel in their marriage.

Fortunately, her best customer, West, has a spare bedroom. Unfortunately, West is gorgeous, kind, absurdly rich, and over a decade younger. The worst part? He sees her. Their nighttime dog-walks are heart-shatteringly honest, and the eye contact over dinner goes dangerously long. This is not the plan.

The plan is to break up her daughter's too-hasty engagement before the ink dries on the save-the-dates. West volunteers to help. What could go wrong?

Obviously, everything.

"Accidentally" crashing the young couple's dates lands Savannah and West in disturbingly romantic situations. A stakeout outside the fiancé's apartment boils over into something that rhymes with stakeout.

A relationship won't work. She has the divorce papers, the stretch marks, and the emotional scars to prove it. A relationship with West — younger, charming, relentlessly confident — makes no sense at all.

West, however, is not taking no for an answer.

Deliciously funny and irresistibly warm, this age-gap roommates-to-lovers romantic comedy proves that the best love stories don't begin at twenty — they begin when you stop hiding.
