Ivy is a makeup artist. Fisher is a director of
commercials. They meet and the next thing you know they
are a couple. The only problem is neither one of
them know much about each other. As they try to find out where this
is going,
Ivy tells
Fisher she is going to have his baby. While
this comes as a shock to Fisher, he is trilled. But can
a relationship of nineteen days handle this?
Fischer and Ivy realize there are going to be many obstacles for
them to overcome. Both have secrets they are
keeping from each other; Fisher has a best friend who is
dying and Ivy a first marriage, which failed. Being in a
relationship is hard, having a baby so quick is hard; can
these two deal with it?
THE TWO OF US is the first book I have read by Andy Jones.
While most of this book is written from Fischer's point of view,
Jones does tell both sides of the story. I really like the
way that he tells the backstory for both Ivy and Fisher.
There are a few secondary characters who play a large part in this
book: one is Fisher best friend who is dying, which is a
sad story in itself. I would like to see a sequel to THE TWO OF US.
Love, laughter, tears...THE TWO OF US has it all.
A charming, unconventional love story about a couple who
embark on a wildly passionate, two-week fling that will
change both of their lives forever. If you loved One Day
and
The Rosie Project, you will fall head-over-heels for The
Two
of Us.
Anyone can fall in love. But not everyone can stay there.
Fisher and Ivy have been an item for all of nineteen days.
Both of them have been in relationships before, and this
time around, they know something is different—they are
meant
to be together. The fact that they know little else about
each other is a minor detail.
But over the next year, a time in which their lives are
irrevocably altered, Fisher and Ivy discover that falling
in
love is one thing—and staying there is an entirely
different
story.
The Two of Us is a charming, honest, laugh-out-loud novel
about life, love, and the importance of taking neither one
for granted.
