Emma's in a rut and desperate to get more out of life. More meaningful work, connection, thrills, joy - and more passionate sex. Rob knows their marriage isn't perfect, but it's good enough, isn't it?
During a cringey visit to IKEA, the store where relationships go to die, Emma finally blurts out to Rob that she wants a marriage gap year.
This romantic-comedy-meets-Grand-Designs keeps the reader guessing to the end. A funny, lusty exploration of modern marriage, feminism, masculinity, work cultures and contemporary mores.
Will their marriage survive a year apart? What, and who, will happen to them along the way?
Find out in this sparkling novel set in bustling Melbourne and the sparkling beaches of San Remo, where love, friendship, and the search for happiness collide.

It's Sex and the City meets Eat Pray Love meets Grand Designs!
★★★★★
This lusty romantic dramedy explores the ennui of modern marriage, the depth of friendships, and to what extent we are willing to run away in order to come back to the people we love.
♥ A wonderful, warm, and riveting read about two prickly people, this is more than a romantic comedy. It is ultimately about how it is never too late to find meaning and joy.
- Alice Pung, author of One Hundred Days
♥ A daring narrative that challenges conventional notions of love and our blundering into the frontier of midlife. A story of our times.
- Rachel Matthews, author of Never Look Desperate
