Save the Date by Allison Raskin
Save the Date by Allison Raskin is an entertaining, thought-provoking, feel-good story that was intriguing and insightful. Emma, a family and relationships therapist, seems to have it all: a loving fiancé, a large online following, and a book deal that incorporates her own experiences. When her fiancé calls off their engagement, she makes an unconventional choice: instead of canceling the wedding venue and date, she sets out to find a new groom. As a therapist who is dealing with her own anxiety, this mission is far from easy; but Emma is determined.
Emma meets Will through Hinge, an on-line dating app, and they hit it
off; but he is not willing to get married. Emma then meets Matt, who was
recently divorced. They hit it off and Matt is willing to marry Emma. Emma and
Will do podcasts together, and she discovers their chemistry better than what
she has with Matt. Emma also realizes that she and Matt have never said I love
you, even after he proposes. When Emma is interviewed on a TV show it makes her
wonder if she’s making a mistake. Now, Emma must decide if she is willing to
compromise and marry Matt or if Will is worth waiting for.
Based on the author’s own life experience, this story
is filled with humor, shocking moments, and heartfelt self-reflection, not only
for Emma but also for those she encounters along the way. It also encourages
the reader to reflect on their own relationships; consider and contemplate what
they are willing to accept, or no accept, in a partner.
