Synopsis
At a funeral on her 29th birthday, Ari takes stock of her life and comes
to a startling conclusion: she’s not happy. Mired in a relationship that’s
gone stale, she approaches her husband Greg about opening their marriage.
To her shock, he agrees.
Ari throws herself headlong into an adventure through the bars and
bedrooms of Austin. For the first time in her life she’s living in the
moment – sex and kink, karaoke and drink – new friends, new lovers, new
boundaries to cross. It’s all just innocent, no-strings fun…until she
meets Alex.
Alex changes everything. While Ari and Greg grapple with their changing
relationship, Ari struggles to control her heart. During hedonistic
self-discovery, has she stumbled across love?

I really enjoyed this book. In taking stock of her life Ari discovers
that she is not happy. She feels her relationship has gone stale and asks
her husband if they can open their marriage. He agrees. However, I
noticed that rarely after they opened their marriage did they make time for
each other which was supposed to be the primary relationship in this
polyamorous relationship experiment.
Of course feelings for other partners comes into play and while Ari has
spent her time making new friends and sharing short flings with people her
husband Greg has been having a relationship with just one person. Honestly I
felt that many of the situations were handled fairly well throughout this
book given the awkwardness of the many times they discover just how small
Austin really is.
Eventually Ari finds someone who makes her a priority, doesn't hold her back
from being who she is and really just compliments her. As her marriage falls
apart its hard not just on her and Greg but also their best friends.
The characters were well developed the story held my interest and Ari's
trysts were never dull but like Ari I kept going back to that first kiss
after she opened her relationship and kept wondering what happened to that
guy.
