Before and After I Do

Love is something everyone searches for… but what happens after you find it?

Before and After I Do is a compelling collection of romantic stories that takes readers through the many stages of love—beginning with the excitement of attraction, moving through the challenges of commitment, and facing the realities of trust, heartbreak, and growth.

These relatable tales explore what it means to build a life with someone, to navigate the struggles of cohabiting, and to hold onto love when circumstances test it. With emotional depth, moments of humor, and characters who feel strikingly real, this book reflects the experiences many women encounter in relationships: the hope of finding “the one,” the work required to maintain love, and the pain that comes when love changes or is lost.

Inside these pages, readers will meet individuals learning how to balance romance with responsibility, how to heal after disappointment, and how to move forward when life doesn’t follow the expected script. Whether it’s the tenderness of new connection, the strain of conflict, or the grief of losing someone—through separation or death—each story offers reflection and meaning.

Written with authenticity drawn from personal experience and observation, Before and After I Do is perfect for readers who enjoy clean romance that stirs the senses without being graphic. Ideal for teens, Christian audiences, and anyone who appreciates emotionally engaging love stories with heart and humor, this collection invites you to laugh, cry, and perhaps see your own journey mirrored in its pages.

Because love isn’t just about the “I do”…

It’s everything that comes before—and everything that follows after.
