Happily Ever After (Give or Take a Mood Swing)

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

Long-term love is a beautiful thing. It’s also a thing that can involve slightly questionable levels of emotional intensity, the occasional dramatic sigh, and the kind of “mood swings” that leave you wondering if you’re starring in your own rom-com or a soap opera.

In Happily Ever After (Give or Take a Mood Swing), Fran Preston takes a refreshingly candid look at the ups and downs of staying in love when the “happily ever after” is more like “happily... when we’ve both calmed down after that argument about who left the cap off the toothpaste.” Through a series of witty, relatable, and occasionally wild anecdotes, Fran uncovers the real-life moments when the fairy tale feels more like a sitcom, but with enough heart to keep it all together.

From navigating the tricky waters of emotional baggage (yours, theirs, and everyone else’s) to realising that “love” is sometimes just agreeing to ignore each other’s slightly irritating quirks, this book is a celebration of the messy, wonderful, and unpredictable nature of love that lasts.

Because happily ever after isn’t perfect—it’s just two people trying to figure it out… with a few mood swings along the way.
