`A beautiful, heart wrenching love story' Sinead Moriarty `Tender and wise' Liz Nugent `Utterly beautiful' Claudia Carroll
One love. Two people. Twenty Years.
From the moment they met, Erin and Dom loved each other too much, too quickly. Everyone said it wouldn't last. But they knew differently.
A wedding present, a notebook, brings them together through the good times and the bad. On the blank pages of their love story, they write down everything they can't always say - the secrets, the heartbreak, the highs and lows. It's where they see the best and worst of each other.
Falling in love is easy but staying in love is where the story begins...
This is the Book of Love
