Second First Impressions is an opposite attracts romance.  When Ruthie first runs into Teddy at a gas station, he thinks she is going to a costume party dressed as a granny.  She is not.

When Ruthie returns to her job at Providence Retirement Villa, she is back in her comfort zone of to-do lists and her routine.  To her horror, Ruthie sees Teddy and her boss walking into her office.  Teddy is the son of the man threatening to close the place where Ruthie works and lives.  He is also asking her to find jobs for Teddy around the property.

To her surprise, Teddy disrupts Ruthie's routine in a good way and she begins to start acting 25, her real age.  Ruthie is able to start making decisions about her own life and what she wants to do with it.

Second First Impressions was chosen for my book club this month.  While I wasn't sure if I was going to like it at first, the characters quickly won me over.  I was laughing from the first chapter on.  Renata, one of the residents at Providence, is absolutely hilarious!  Despite being a romance, it did find a way to break my heart at the end!
