The Golden Years Glitch

Why did shows like The Golden Bachelor and The Golden Bachelorette strike such a chord? Because there's a hungry audience ready to see that life in our 60s and 70s can still be bold, passionate, and empowering. We’ve weathered heartbreak, raised families, and navigated loss—now we want stories that celebrate the vibrant women we've become.

The Golden Years Glitch follows 70-year-old Andi Parker—successful businesswoman, proud mother and grandmother, and a woman who thought she was heading into her golden years with her charming husband, Jed. That is, until Jed accidentally messages his mistress on Facebook after one too many White Russians.

So much for the golden years.

Devastated but not defeated, Andi must decide: forgive Jed and salvage the life they built, or strike out on her own in her seventies. With the support of three fiercely loyal friends, Andi embarks on a journey of reinvention, female empowerment, and even some unexpected sexual reawakening that leaves her daughter and granddaughters stunned—and secretly impressed.

When a new love interest enters the picture, tensions rise, passions flare, and Andi finds herself caught between the past and the future. But in losing the life she thought she knew, she discovers a richer, more introspective path forward.

The Golden Years Glitch is a smart, funny, and heartfelt novel that proves it’s never too late to reclaim your joy—and your power.
