Dating a 40-Year-Old Boy
By Mia Scott — romance novelist and the pen name of a woman who believes love is both sacred and delightfully complicated
He is charming. He is successful. He is forty years old and somehow still emotionally twelve. And she fell for him anyway.
Dating a 40-Year-Old Boy is Mia Scott's sharp, funny, and heartfelt debut — a romance that will have you laughing at the text messages, cringing at the red flags you definitely ignored in your own life, and cheering when she finally, finally chooses herself.
This is not a book about a perfect man or a fairy-tale ending. It is a book about a woman learning — in real time, with all the wrong detours — what she actually wants. What she actually deserves. And what it costs to settle for less.
If you have ever stayed too long, explained away too much, or told yourself he just needs time — this book was written for you.
