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?

The first section of the book - when Lauren and Ryan decide to separate - shows an excruciating view of how the things we found delightful and loveable at the beginning of a relationship can morph into making us feel irritated and even infuriated. It is true that little things can break a couple up. It's a sad/funny incident involving a disagreement over where they parked the car while attending a Lakers game that finally makes the couple face that they want to be apart.They decide to take a year apart, with no contact with one another.There are so many layers to the relationship that are peeled off and revealed by the author. To the bitter decision to separate, they both say they feel they still love one another but they just can't live with one another.I've been married for a long time now (more than 25 years) but I was divorced earlier in my life. I understand what it takes to keep a marriage together and how one comes apart. The author really hits the nail on the head. When she wrote about them coming apart, I kept saying to my self as I read, " YES...that is exactly how it can happen."During their year separation Ryan and Lauren both come to realize that life did not turn out the way they wanted partly because they did not tell the other person what they wanted and partly because they never thought about "marriage" being different from "courting." An example of this is that Lauren hated going to Lakers games and Ryan got tickets often. Instead of speaking up and even suggesting that she only go to an occasional game, she went but harbored some resentment. It never occurred to Ryan (nor did he ask) whether she liked going to the games or not.In the course of the novel, Lauren's family members also experience some relationship changes and you'll find some surprises.If you feel the ending is a bit too neat and "rose colored glasses." I can't really disagree with you. But this is a story that is very well written and filled with hope. It will make you laugh and make you cry and warm your heart. It would make a great movie.If you haven't read the author's other book (FOREVER, INTERRUPTED) don't miss it. Taylor Jenkins Reid is an author who I will follow. Hope she is working on another novel!

This book had me confused and upset and over all emotional, I wasn't sure which way the author was going. It seemed hasty and too fast in the beginning. But I couldn't stop reading. Somewhere in there and I won't say when, it gripped me. It made me think. I married my husband with the expectation that I wouldn't run. No running for me. One thing we have that these characters do not is an open honest relationship from the beginning, only because I have no filter between my brain and my mouth. After I do. Not something I would do but the story is intriguing, keeping the spark and realizing that people do change and evolve is a hard thing to accept in a marriage, but after you say I do the story doesn't end and you have to fight for it, by any means necessary. I get lazy, or I just expect him to read my mind and know what I want when that is just not the case. The outcome of this book was great; would I do the same thing? No, I don't think I would, good thing this is a piece of fiction! Even though it has been a couple weeks, I am still thinking of this book. The author did good.
14 of 17 people found the following review helpful. Am I missing something? By Linnee I was excited to read this book because of the great reviews but turns out I was really disappointed. I kept waiting for something exciting to happen, like Lauren goes on a wild girls trip to Vegas or she runs into her husband while out on a date with her "friends with benefits" but mostly it was just her hanging out with her sister and family. I was so bored I had to skip pages. I like the premise of the book but felt like it could have been so much better!
