'A dream of a book: humour, warm, fun characters and a story I stayed up all night for. I loved it!' Lucy Vine, author of Seven Exes

'Refreshing and original… a real life love story about what happens after the happy ever after. I loved it!' Bianca Gillam, author of Bad Publicity

It looks like Jessica and Jack have it all. Their social media accounts show them glamorous, happy and sickeningly in love. They even landed a book deal to share their seven rules for a perfect marriage – an instant bestseller, of course.

But behind the scenes it's not so simple. Jessica is determined to make a success of her business and has stopped making time for Jack. Meanwhile Jack is learning that he hates the life of an Instagram husband.

In a bid to reboot their relationship, they decide to go back to basics and follow their own rules. But they’re about to learn that there is simply no such thing as perfect, and, in fact, there might be a lot more to making a marriage work than just following the rules…

Seven Rules for a Perfect Marriage is a funny and poignant celebration of long-term love, asking what happens when Happily Ever After doesn’t always look so happy.
