Named one of the Best Romances of 2020 by Insider and Oprah Magazine’s + Marie Claire’s Best New Books of 2020
New York Times bestselling author Tessa Bailey returns with a unique, sexy romantic comedy about a young married couple whose rocky relationship needs a serious renovation…
Rosie and Dominic Vega are the perfect couple: high school sweethearts, best friends, madly in love. Well, … renovation…
Rosie and Dominic Vega are the perfect couple: high school sweethearts, best friends, madly in love. Well, they used to be anyway. Now Rosie’s lucky to get a caveman grunt from the ex-soldier every time she walks in the door. Dom is faithful and a great provider, but the man she fell in love with ten years ago is nowhere to be found. When her girlfriends encourage Rosie to demand more out of life and pursue her dream of opening a restaurant, she decides to demand more out of love, too. Three words: marriage boot camp.
Never in a million years did Rosie believe her stoic, too-manly-to-emote husband would actually agree to relationship rehab with a weed-smoking hippie. Dom talking about feelings? Sitting on pillows? Communing with nature? Learning love languages? Nope. But to her surprise, he’s all in, and it forces her to admit her own role in their cracked foundation. As they complete one ridiculous—yet surprisingly helpful—assignment after another, their remodeled relationship gets stronger than ever. Except just as they’re getting back on track, Rosie discovers Dom has a secret… and it could demolish everything.
“Her voice feels as fresh and contemporary as a Netflix rom-com.” —Entertainment Weekly

Tessa Bailey brings it! This dirty talking hero broke my heart. Dom’s past and how he was raised played such a huge roll in his marriage issues. He loved Rosie so much but did not know how to express it to her. At least where she realized what he was doing. He was such a sweetheart. And I loved Rosie and that she gave Dom a chance to prove himself, learning ways to communicate with Dom in his own love language. Can’t wait for Bethany’s story!
I was waiting and waiting for this!! Please tell me that you started with the first book, you have too and you will love it. This book was Dominic and Rosie, I have to say I loved Dominic more than Rosie in this one. Dominic and Rosie have been together forevah but have stopped talking to each other, they barely knew each other anymore they only had good sex (yeah I know there is no only) so Rosie decides she has had enough. In a last ditch approach they go to a marriage counselor and they start re-discovering themselves and that I liked because Rosie was blaming everything on Dom until she realized she was also to blame. I loved the previous characters, Trevor and Georgie were so cute, I can’t wait for Bethany’s and Wes’s story I am imagining that that is going to be off the charts, I have to say that in the book it was the guys who were the funniest and I was excited when they would get together they were literally the best times in the book. I didn’t like Stephen in the last book but he totally won me over with this one his wife Kristin, yeah I still don’t like her, I find her selfish and feel she treats Stephen like crap, even her reasoning didn’t convince me…Enjoy!
rcvd an ARc at no cost to author..(netgalley) Voluntarily reviewed with my own thoughts and opinions
Love her or lose her it’s amazing and I don’t remember reading a book so hot and full of emotion at the same time. After a few chapters, I went looking for my husband because I just couldn’t read it anymore and the moment he saw my face he’s first question was: “What are you reading now crazy woman?? “
I felt for them, I was sad, I wanted to smack each one at times and I cheered more than I ever did for any fictional characters. Dom and Rosie are the perfect couple
