Review

"The love triangle between Beth, Rick, and Dave finally explodes in this beautifully written, heart-wrenching sequel to Is This All There Is?" - Sandi Lynn, New York Times, USA Today & Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author

"All those who were left wanting more after reading 'Is This All there Is?' will be happy to know there is more. Lots more, in the sequel 'Is This What I Want?' In this honest and thoughtful exploration of a marriage coming undone, author Patricia Mann offers no easy solutions. Instead she takes us into the heart of what love and family is all about and reminds us there is no one-size fits all. A thoroughly satisfying read." - Eileen Goudge, New York Times Bestselling Author
