Publisher Description

"Through this pitch-perfect rom-com, Kristina Forest explores the legacy of family and what it means to be young and full of artistic passion. I was utterly charmed from start to finish." —Maurene Goo, author of Somewhere Only We Know

Now That I've Found You is a YA novel about searching for answers, love, and your eccentric grandma in all the wrong places.


Following in the footsteps of her überfamous grandma, eighteen-year-old Evie Jones is poised to be Hollywood’s next big star. That is until a close friend’s betrayal leads to her being blacklisted . . .

Fortunately, Evie knows just the thing to save her floundering career: a public appearance with America’s most beloved actress—her grandma Gigi, aka the Evelyn Conaway. The only problem? Gigi is a recluse who’s been out of the limelight for almost twenty years. Days before Evie plans to present her grandma with an honorary award in front of Hollywood’s elite, Gigi does the unthinkable: she disappears.

With time running out and her comeback on the line, Evie reluctantly enlists the help of the last person to see Gigi before she vanished: Milo Williams, a cute musician Evie isn’t sure she can trust. As Evie and Milo conduct a wild manhunt across New York City, romance and adventure abound while Evie makes some surprising discoveries about her grandma—and herself.

Lovely Book About the Need for Authenticity

Now That I've Found You is a sweet novel about a young girl who believes her life is falling down around her as she goes on a search for her missing Grandmother. On the journey she gets reacquainted with herself and the woman she aspires to be.

There is a romantic storyline, but it takes a backseat to the primary plot of the book rather than it being the most important point. Evie is dealing with much bigger issue with her Grandmother having essentially running away and trying to put her career back together after a very public misstep, subsequent firing, and dealing with the fallout from her supposed best friend.

The book takes you all over New York City, but not quite the love letter to the city I hoped it would be. More of a taste that makes you miss the real thing all the more. The book is a quick and easy read, with a sense of being along for the ride.
