Contemporary romance novels where age, aging and longevity play an important role. Any suggestions and recommendations?

Carol Kirkwood (weather girl bbc )
Under Greek Moon
good light read good ending !!!!

Mary Wesley and Rosamund Pilcher, although I recently re-read The Shell Seekers 30 years later and found mumma a self-centred poseur who actually did very little.

The runaway wife. The golden girls road trip. Reading old ducks hen do at the moment.

The Little Black Dress, Deborah Moggach (Best Marigold Hotel)

I thoroughly enjoyed this.

I enjoyed The silver ladies of penny Lane and the getaway girls both by Dee Macdonald

The Single Ladies of Jacaranda Retirement Village

Joanna Nell

The Un-retirement. Penny Mirren

You might like ‘Away with the Penguins’ by Hazel Prior ……

Oh that is lovely!

Some hate them, but Richard Osman’s “Thursday Club” books are mostly about old people.

I’ve just read ‘Betty Boo’ by Claudia Pineiro, an Argentinian author. Although it is mainly a murder mystery it also includes late life romance and is very funny in places. Highly recommended.

I read 'I don't want to join a Book Club' some time ago. It was very funny but expressed the frustration and this woman's journey exploring her life as an older person.

Hilary Boyd - wonderful.

Not exactly contemporary (it’s set in 1928), but certainly reflecting contemporary mores and challenges, Lissa Evan’s Old Baggage is delightful.

Judy Astley pretty much always includes older people in her books. In one of them, she has a woman in her late 70s having sex (and also tea and champagne) with a lovely man at the Ritz. Sex and love don't just pack up and leave when a woman hits 40.

If you'd like a laugh as well, Maddie Pearse-'The old duck's club' is a great summer read.

This is not so much a romance, more of a cautionary tale for well-to-do widows.
Falling by Elizabeth Jane Howard.
So stylishly written. I found it most enjoyable.

Maeve Haran has written about groups of older women. The novels are about friendship and are light-hearted, with a little bit of romance thrown into the mix.

The Sue Gee and Angela Lambert are both novels.

Sue Gee: Reading in Bed
Angela Lambert: Kiss and Kin

Clare Pooley - How to age disgracefully.

I love all her books, and this is the latest.
