“Brutally honest and wonderfully witty, The Marriage Diaries had me
laughing and crying–often at the same time.” –Gemma Townley,
author of Little White Lies Meet Sean and Celeste–living proof that
opposites attract. Savvy and sophisticated Celeste is a top clothing
buyer in London; Sean is a scruffy, eccentric writer turned
stay-at-home dad who, courtesy of the couple’s toddler, has mastered
the art of changing stinky diapers. Needing to be seen (if only by
himself) as more than just a drool-spattered Mr. Mom, Sean begins a
hilarious journal detailing the ridiculous, wondrous, and sometimes
salacious aspects of being a househusband–including such juicy
tidbits as his growing attraction to the beautiful Uma Thursday, a
single mother from his son’s play group. But when Celeste stumbles
upon Sean’s secret entries, she’s dismayed to discover she’s
opened a Pandora’s box on her marriage. Hardly the kind of girl to
take a straying husband lying down, she devises a scheme of her own,
and the twin strands of the will-they-won’t-they plot become ever
more entangled. Can love trump lust? Can fidelity conquer passion? Or
will the destructive forces of untrammeled desire wreck what may just
be, for all its faults, the perfect marriage? With sparkling wit and
characters who leap off the page, Rebecca Campbell has crafted a
brilliant and utterly winning novel about vows, straying, and finding
a way home.
