Eva Lockart has found the perfect man. She loves everything about him and after all this time is seriously considering getting married. For a long time she refused to even think about marriage after seeing so many friends and family go through divorce. But does she have what it takes to go through with a wedding and then the rest of her life being married?

Will Cummings has found the one person he wants to commit himself to for the rest of his life. He just cannot understand her profound jealousy of his ex-wife. The one thing that he wants more than anything is to prove to her just how much he loves her and he does mean forever.

Eva is a successful businesswoman and works out of her home. Will is a computer programmer and makes a good living. It seems they both have their feet on the ground and their heads on the same goal. But Eva has seen her parents marriage crumble, she lived through fifteen years of fighting before they split. That is what terrifies her the most about marriage. She also has anxiety attacks at the most inopportune moments. She asks herself time and again why this is happening to her, why she cannot just be happily in love and let it go at that. But she also sees her friends’ marriages fall apart and go through some very dark hours. She does not want to end up married to a man she is unhappy with ninety percent of the time. What will it take to convince herself that Will is what she needs and has needed all along?

A funny and charming story that left me laughing and biting my nails through all the emotions that Eva faces. If you have been or are married and have planned a wedding, you will know exactly what she is going through. You will sympathize with all the little problems that she considers mind blowing. But this is well worth the read. I found that I could not put the book down and read this in one sitting. It also made me very happy that my husband and I decided to get married by a Justice of the Peace. I will most highly recommend this book for anyone planning a wedding.
