Book Description
Barbara Novak hits The Big Apple of the early sixties with her new book DOWN WITH LOVE, a pre-feminist manifesto on saying "no" to love and "yes" to career, empowerment... and sex. As Barbara's revolutionary tome rockets to the top of the best-seller charts, she becomes the target of ace journalist / ladies man / man-about-town Catcher "Catch" Block, who is determined to prove the book a lie. Catch's best friend (and boss), the neurotic and lovesick Peter McMannus tries to rein in his star writer, all the time haplessly pursuing the object of his affections: Vikki Hiller, Barbara’s feisty editor. Vikki plays tough in a man's world and her brilliant promotional ideas propel "Down With Love" to the top of the best-seller lists. Meanwhile, Vikki's boss, publishing magnate Theodore Banner, doesn't let his old-fashioned ideas about a woman's place get in the way of DOWN WITH LOVE's huge success. Mistaken identities, frantic roundelays, startling revelations -- and ever changing perceptions aboaut love and sex -- are just a few of the surprises in store for Barbara, Catch, Peter and Vikki as they collide in a wild, witty, deliciously zany whirlwind of romance and fun.

Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this refreshing and inspiring memoir, Lauren Akins, the wife of country music star Thomas Rhett, shows what it’s really like to be “the perfect couple” fans imagine, and reveals what it actually takes to live in love, stay in love, and grow together. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY PARADE When country music star Thomas Rhett won the ACM Award for Single of the Year with “Die a Happy Man,” his wife, Lauren Akins, was overjoyed. Her childhood best friend and now husband was being anointed the hottest new star in country music—for a song he had written about her. He was living his dream. Lauren was elated, but she was also wrestling with some big questions, not the least of which was, How can I live my own life of purpose? Lauren Akins never wanted to be in the spotlight, but as Thomas Rhett made his relationship with Lauren the subject of many of his hit songs, she was tossed into the role of one of America’s sweethearts. Revered by fans for her down-to-earth ease and charm, her commitment to humanitarian work, and the pure love she exudes for her family, Lauren has never shared her side of their story—full as it’s been with deep love, painful loss, tremendous joy, and a struggle to stay grounded in faith along the way—until now. In Live in Love, Lauren shares details about her childhood friendship with Thomas Rhett, explaining how they reconnected as young adults. She offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the challenges of being married to her best friend, who just happens to be a music star, and the struggle to find her own footing in the frenzy of her husband’s fame. And in heart-wrenching detail, she opens up about her life-changing experiences doing mission work in Haiti, and then in Uganda, where she met the precious baby who would become their first daughter. From sharing the romance of their handwritten wedding vows to the challenges they faced as they adjusted to the reality of becoming first-time parents, Live in Love takes an intimate look at one couple’s life—and opens a window into all of our journeys on the path to self-discovery. Live in Love is a deeply personal memoir that offers inspiring guidance for anyone looking to keep romance alive, balance children and marriage, express true faith, and live a life of purpose.
