“Instead of asking yourself if Julian is perfect or if your relationship is, you need to ask yourself whether you can live with Julian’s faults.”



This book shows plenty of issues within marriage. Couples growing apart after being married for over 20 years, blended family issues, and ultimately the effects on a soon - to - be bride, Beverly, that experiences betrayal of a friend. All of this within a week of her wedding and she’s forced to see that no marriage will be perfect. 



I always knew there was something up with Valerie. Because I could never wrap my mind around how her and Beverly were friends after dating the same man in college (at the same time, unknowingly). That was a weird connection to begin with - at least for me, and it really brought light to who Valerie was in this story.
