The Marriage Audit is a deeply intimate novel about love, loss, and the quiet unraveling of a marriage.
After eight years together, Sophia and Beau LeBlanc sit across a polished conference table, ready to sign their divorce papers. But when Sophia hesitates, their attorney suggests an unusual alternative: a one-day “Marriage Audit”—twelve questions, one room, and a final opportunity to reflect before walking away for good.
What follows is a single day of emotional excavation. As they revisit their shared history—career sacrifices, unspoken grief, the baby they never had—Sophia and Beau begin to uncover the real reasons they drifted apart. It wasn’t betrayal or scandal. It was silence. Small resentments. Missed moments. The slow disappearance of intimacy behind a life that looked perfect on paper.
Told in alternating perspectives with lyrical prose and unflinching emotional honesty, The Marriage Audit explores what happens when two people stop seeing each other—and what it might take to truly look again. As the day unfolds, long-buried truths rise to the surface, challenging everything they thought they knew about themselves, and each other.
Heartbreaking and hopeful, this is a story for anyone who’s ever wondered if love is enough—or if sometimes, clarity is the greater gift.
