After I Do

Lauren and Ryan Cooper have been together since college, but after years of marriage they can no longer find their way back to each other. After a quarrel in a Dodger Stadium parking lot, Ryan moves out and the two agree to spend a year apart.

Lauren leans on her family and friends in Los Angeles, looks hard at the marriage her own parents modelled, and slowly works out what she wants. When she finds the unsent emails Ryan saved for her, the pair begin writing to one another again, unsure whether this is the way back or the way out.

Taylor Jenkins Reid's 2014 novel is a character-driven look at marriage, separation and starting over.
