Ellie always knew the sex with Adam would die down one day, sometime in their seventies after forty years together with the memory of their steamy years to look back on. Not sometime in their thirties after two years together, only one of which could reliably fit in the steamy category, if she’s honest.

Ellie’s best friend is getting divorced, if her ex ever stops sending papers back unsigned; her sister is as calm and level-headed as always, until Callum comes along; and her man is insisting their MIA sex life is just a dry spell. But the months are nearly into double figures, their wedding is fast approaching on the dusty horizon and Ellie can’t help but feel that she is the only one in the relationship who is worried. Soon Ellie has to decide if a sexless relationship, even with a man who is everything she could have hoped for in every other way, is really enough.  And it’s like her best friend says, when it comes to these sorts of decisions, you want to be really sure before you say yes.  Before You Say Yes is commercial women’s fiction addressing a little-talked about topic; women in their thirties finding themselves in sexless relationships. It will appeal to readers of Marian Keyes’ conversational narrative and Ayelet Waldman’s honest, imperfect characters.
