Grandma’s Got a Gun
August 23rd & 24th
Evelyn Westbrook is sharp-witted, loving, and…opportunistic.
When her grandsons gather to celebrate her 80th birthday and one unexpectedly breaks his leg, she quickly devises a plan to help them rebuild their bond before it’s too late. The forced close quarters (and a dash of her strategic meddling) lead to surprising revelations, new romantic possibilities, and healing from the shared grief they have all carried for too long.
