Brutally honest and wonderfully witty, The Marriage Diaries had me laughing and cryingoften at the same time.Gemma Townley, author of Little White LiesMeet Sean and Celesteliving proof that opposites attract.Savvy and sophisticated Celeste is a top clothing buyer in London; Sean is a scruffy, eccentric writer turned stay-at-home dad who, courtesy of the couples toddler, has mastered the art of changing stinky diapers. Needing to be seen (if only by himself) as more than just a drool-spattered Mr. Mom, Sean begins a hilarious journal detailing the ridiculous, wondrous, and sometimes salacious aspects of being a househusbandincluding such juicy tidbits as his growing attraction to the beautiful Uma Thursday, a single mother from his sons play group. But when Celeste stumbles upon Seans secret entries, shes dismayed to discover shes opened a Pandoras box on her marriage. Hardly the kind of girl to take a straying husband lying down, she devises a scheme of her own, and the twin strands of the will-they-wont-they plot become ever more entangled. Can love trump lust? Can fidelity conquer passion? Or will the destructive forces of untrammeled desire wreck what may just be, for all its faults, the perfect marriage? With sparkling wit and characters who leap off the page, Rebecca Campbell has crafted a brilliant and utterly winning novel about vows, straying, and finding a way home.From the Trade Paperback edition.
