From the New York Times bestselling author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

"A seductive twist on the timeless tale of a couple trying to rediscover love in a marriage brought low by the challenges of domestic togetherness...touching, perceptive, and achingly honest." --Beatriz Williams, New York Times bestselling author

When Lauren and Ryan's marriage reaches the breaking point, they come up with an unconventional plan. They decide to take a year off in the hopes of finding a way to fall in love again. One year apart, and only one rule: they cannot contact each other. Aside from that, anything goes.

Lauren embarks on a journey of self-discovery, quickly finding that her friends and family have their own ideas about the meaning of marriage. These influences, as well as her own healing process and the challenges of living apart from Ryan, begin to change Lauren's ideas about monogamy and marriage. She starts to question: When you can have romance without loyalty and commitment without marriage, when love and lust are no longer tied together, what do you value? What are you willing to fight for?

This is a love story about what happens when the love fades. It's about staying in love, seizing love, forsaking love, and committing to love with everything you've got. And above all, After I Do is the story of a couple caught up in an old game--and searching for a new road to happily ever after.

It's astonishingly good.

Some of the awful things Lauren and Ryan said to each other when they were falling apart were the same things my husband and I have said to one another in our past. Lauren and Ryan took a full year apart to see if they could ever love one another again, or if they could ever stand to be around one another again. That my husband and I were so close to a similar path in our past made this story feel so personal to me.I wasn't expecting this depth of emotion. It's astonishingly good.

Not Lost in Los Angeles

Such a heartwarming book for when you think your marriage is falling apart and how you hope to save it. You have to look inside yourself and find what makes you happy before you can make someone else happy. Cried happy tears for sure.
