Cereal Dating

Audie A. Mae never imagined she'd be back in the dating game at age 52-especially not while singlehandedly raising many teenagers. After her beloved husband vanished from their lives, Audie was stuck. She eventually realized that maybe-just maybe-she deserved a shot at romance.

So, armed with determination and a cautiously optimistic attitude, she plunged into the uncharted world of online dating.

But finding love as a middle-aged, over-caffeinated working mother of teens is no easy task. From profiles littered with shirtless mirror selfies to dinner dates spent deciphering cryptic male behavior, Audie A.'s journey is equal parts hilarious, unbelievable, at times frustrating, and unexpectedly enlightening. As she navigates late-night texts, ghosting, and a few genuine connections, she finds herself learning more about who she is, what she truly wants, and how to balance love with the unexpected calamities of motherhood.

Through laugh-out-loud mishaps, poignant moments of self-discovery, and a healthy dose of reality, Cereal Dating proves that love, life, and relationships are all about embracing the unexpected-and sometimes, the best medicine for a broken heart could be in taking chances.
