Garrett realizes that their relationship is changing, but has no idea what the problem is. He loves his wife, but it’s hard to be in a relationship where your touch is no longer wanted. Not only that, but he is offered the opportunity to co-author a book with a beautiful young woman who seems to be attracted to him. For the first time in his life he doesn’t share this information with Elise, because he isn’t sure how she will react.

With the holidays coming up, their teenage daughter wins a trip for two to an island for a week. She gladly gives this trip to her parents as a gift. The two of them go away for a week to the island to try to rekindle the love that they once shared for each other, at least that’s what Garrett thinks. Once they arrive, Elise embarks on a plan to test Garrett’s love for her.

I think any woman who has been in a relationship with one person for a long period of time can relate to the feelings that Deirdre Savoy takes Elise through in this book. This book is definitely written from a woman’s perspective on the way she feels when her childbearing years start slipping away. Garrett behaves in a manner that most men would, because he simply thinks that the woman he loves is losing her mind. The funny thing is that most men would not notice the changes in a woman’s body, if she didn’t start behaving differently.

The author demonstrated that a subject could be discussed in a tasteful manner. The book established how two people in love could work through any situation. In addition it shows that often the loving gets better with age, rather than dying like some people think happens the longer you are with that special someone.
