(Halleluja!) Follow along as the unlikely pair go from late night phone calls and sexy texts to that nerve-wracking moment they finally meet in person. A story about letting go of timelines, trusting your gut, and discovering that age really is just a number when two people truly connect.

So you went out for margaritas and came home with a 25-year-old? Honey, it's happened to the best of us! (Jayna included!)

You'll get to take a peek into Jayna's DMs, hear some real-life cougar tales from BLE besties and we'll even get some men to chime in on the conversation!  You're going to love how Jayna flips the script on the whole concept of "cougar". ( Did you know you could get catfished into roleplaying as somebodys step mom?!) These young men really are risking it all for grown women who know what they want!
