T.I.M.E. BOOK REVIEW

What would you do if 'the one that got away' turned up the night before your wedding?

That's the dilemma facing Audrey in Sophie Cousens' romance novel Before I Do.

Audrey is a head-in-the-stars kind of girl who is about to marry down-to-earth Josh. Opposites? Yes... Healthy, stable relationship? Also yes... Josh is just what Audrey needs. But shouldn't romance also be a bit unpredictable?

Before I Do is a charming novel that will resonate with anyone who has ever questioned whether they are making the right decision in their relationship.

Cousens' writing is light and fun, but she also tackles some deeper issues, like what it means to truly be happy and whether or not soulmates exist.

Sophie Cousens weaves an enchanting story of love, loss, and self-discovery in her best contemporary romance book Before I Do. The reader is immediately transported into Audrey's world from the first page. Cousens' writing and character development are vivid and engaging, and it's easy to feel like you're right there alongside Audrey as she navigates her way through this emotional minefield.

The main characters are richly drawn and fully fleshed out, each with their unique motivations and backstories as each relationship develops. And as the story reaches its climax, you'll find yourself holding your breath in anticipation.

Perfect for readers who are looking for the best contemporary romance novels that explore the question often lingering in the shadows of our hearts and mind... What if?

With witty banter, occasionally laugh-out-loud funny moments and undeniable chemistry, the line between real life choices and the fantasy of first love entangles.
