Summary
Wreck My Plans by Cindi Madsen looks like a lighthearted rom-com at first glance, but it quickly reveals itself to be a thoughtful story about burnout, perfectionism, and learning to slow down.
Mia Andrews is a publicist whose life unravels spectacularly after a very public viral mishap. Suddenly unemployed, single, and emotionally exhausted, she retreats to her grandmother’s retirement community in Florida expecting peace and anonymity. What she finds instead is a lively group of retirees fueled by gossip, golf carts, and an intense interest in her personal life. The grandmas completely steal the show—chaotic, meddling, funny, and unexpectedly comforting.
The humor here is grounded and relatable rather than over-the-top. It’s the kind of funny that comes from recognizing yourself in the messiness of life. Watching Mia—who has tied her identity to productivity—be forced to stop, rest, and reflect is both amusing and meaningful.
The romance is a slow burn; it focuses on Mia’s personal growth and her relationship with her grandmother over rushing her into a relationship. When the romance does take shape, it feels gentle, supportive, and well earned.
By the end, Wreck My Plans feels less like a traditional rom-com and more like a comforting reminder that starting over isn’t failure—it’s growth.
