On this episode of Complicated Conversations, we are joined by New York Times bestselling author Sophie Cousens. She is the author of This Time Next Year and Just Haven’t Met You Yet. We talk with her about Before I Do, her new novel that asks the question: what would you do if “the one that got away” turned up the night before your wedding?!
We chat with Sophie about “mommy issues” and the way her heroine, Audrey, is affected by the choices her mother has made; why she thinks the one that got away or the “what if” love interest is so popular in fiction; how she came to understand Audrey, her complicated protagonist with a “heavy” soul; what is love and how her novel explores all the permutations of love, lust, and connection; why love is dominated by a scarcity mentality and whether you can have more than one true love; who is worthy of love; and, of course, how the stars and astrology factor into all this!
