Love, Julie
A Poignant and Humorous Journey of Self-discovery, Resilience, and
Redemption
Once, Julie dreamed of a life filled with love and laughter. Now, in her mid-forties, she faces a starkly different reality. She's single, lonely, and reeling from breaking her hard-earned sobriety in front of her family and friends.
Opting for self-recovery over romance, Julie dives into planning her best friend Kate’s wedding. However, sharing this task with the irritatingly cheerful best man, single dad Luke, proves to be an unexpected challenge.
As Luke’s persistent kindness chips away at her icy exterior, a friendship forms, stirring a longing she’d sworn to suppress. But with self-forgiveness as her biggest hurdle, and her past ready to sabotage her future, can Julie confront the shame and trauma that have darkened so much of her life and find the courage to love again? Or will her demons shatter both her and Luke’s hearts in the process?
Jamie Anderson, author of the hilarious and heartwarming Someone to Kiss, is back with another witty, acerbic, and relatable story. Love, Julie is a richly emotional tale of recovery, forgiveness, and romance that readers have praised for “nailing the humor and snarky nature of our generation.”
Review
Julie has been sober for nearly a year when she has a drink at the engagement party of her brother and her best friend Kate and so starts the slippery slope of alcoholism. She embarrasses herself and knows she has to do something about it now and so signs up to the local AA group.
When she meets Luke at the meeting, little did she know that he is her brother’s friend and that he is going to be best man!
As part of her healing process and to help keep her mind off the drink, Julie asks her brother Ben and her friend Kate if she can be their wedding planner. They reluctantly agree, but with one condition - that Luke helps her with the arrangements!
This is a story that touches the often taboo subject of alcoholism, but it deals with it with compassion and also humour.
