Lynn and her husband Jamie are your typical married couple. They have their ups and downs just like everyone else in any type of relationship. Their issues became bigger and blown out of proportion because they never talked to each other.

Lynn is a museum curator who bumped into an old college friend. They started being together more and more because of who his boss is. They are always thrown together because his boss is interested in Lynn's museum. So the more Lynn and her friend are together the more Jamie thinks that things are happening between them. The only issue that Lynn has with Jamie is his mother. Lynn always feels put down by her because her family is not as financially secure as his. The thing is that she never thought to talk to his mother about her feelings. She just complains about it to Jamie.

Jamie is a young lawyer with a background in architecture. Jamie makes his living is by traveling. He is hardly ever home. Lynn understands that he has to travel and is fine with it. Jamie starts noticing things that Lynn thought were so small. He notices that she is always talking to her old friend, whom he has never met. She is always surrounded by men because of her job. He has just never thought to talk to Lynn about it.

Lynn is surprised one day when she receives divorce papers in the mail. After she gets the papers she starts to realize that her marriage to Jamie is really going to end. So she decides to start moving on with her life. She gets herself a lawyer and starts the process of moving out of their house to sell it. She gets an apartment and starts trying to date after she finds out that her soon to be ex is dating his boss's daughter.

After Lynn finds out that Jamie has moved, she decides to try and advance in her job position. She gets a higher ranking position and the only thing that she has to do was move. It is just a coincidence that she is moving to the same area that Jamie is living in.

By the end of PROSPER IN LOVE, one not so happy couple is happy again. They finally realize that they are unhappy without each other. They decide to sit down and get everything out in the open. They want to make their marriage work again because they finally realize that their love for each other can help them get through anything.

I really enjoyed reading PROSPER IN LOVE. I thought it was a great way to describe everyday relationships. It showed that every relationship needs to be worked on constantly and communication is the key. The book showed that if there is no communication and trust, then there can be no relationship at all.

I however thought PROSPER IN LOVE moved a little slowly for me. I understand why it was written the way it was, but some parts, I thought, could have been left out. I did like how the author told the story from the female's perspective. It made me relate to the book and the characters a little better.

SUMMARY

A good marriage lasts forever…until it doesn’t.

From the start, Lynn and Jamie Prosper were one of those
couples who seem
meant to beβ€”so content with each other that they barely
notice the rest of the
world nodding approvingly at their wedded bliss. But
sometimes, even in the
very best of marriages, all it takes is a mischievous
outsider to bring the perfect
couple toppling off the top of the wedding cake…

True, Jamie has been working so hard and traveling so much
as a young lawyer
that he hardly has enough energy to show his devotion. Not
that Lynn, a junior
museum curator, has any reason to question it. But when
Lynn’s old college
friend turns up at a cocktail party, chinks in their
marriage’s previously
unassailable armor start to show. Suddenly, without
meaning to, Lynn and
Jamie have both acquired divorce lawyers. And those
benevolent onlookersβ€”
meddling in-laws and competitive friends alikeβ€”eagerly bear
witness to each
new misstep. Is love really enough to make a marriage last?
