5-STAR REVIEW: SAVE THE DATE by Allison Raskin

The Description

Publication Date: April 8, 2025

From Just Between Us podcast host, mental health advocate, and trusted relationship expert Allison Raskin comes a charming new rom com—loosely based on her own life experience!

You are cordially invited to the wedding of Emma Moskowitz and…someone…

When couples therapist Emma Moskowitz is unceremoniously dumped by her fiancé six months before their wedding, her world comes crashing down: her thriving private practice, her status as a popular online creator, even her book deal all hinge on the fact that Emma is an expert when it comes to romantic relationships. Not to mention her heart is ripped in half.

It isn’t fair. She worked so hard to be ready for marriage. If only Emma could find a different groom by her planned wedding day, nothing would have to change….

So commences Operation: Save My Date.

As Emma publicly shares her untraditional journey to the altar online, things get complicated quickly. She finds herself caught between Will, a charismatic podcast producer who is not interested in being a replacement groom; and Matt, a sweet, recent divorcee eagerly looking to settle down.

As the wedding day approaches, Emma must decide what future she truly wants for herself. After all, her family, her book editor, and a large portion of the internet are watching…

The Review

Emma Moskowitz, a licensed marriage and family therapist, is on the cusp of having it all. With a wedding date set, her social media channel features videos with her fiancé, and her upcoming book is packed with examples of maintaining healthy relationships.

And then her world is shattered. Scrambling to pick up the pieces, Emma decides to take control and find a suitable groom as a replacement…within six months.

Author Allison Raskin serves up a side-splitting romantic comedy in Save the Date. Emma’s character is well crafted, with a perfect mix of confidence and desperation.

The challenge, though, is that she decides to reach out to her exes and try to make it work. When that goes awry, she changes tactics while her family cheers her on. What follows is a comedy of errors as poor Emma learns that love doesn’t happen on a schedule.

REVIEW AUTHOR

Amy Wilson
Amy Wilson
My name is Amy W., and I am a book addict. I will never forget the day I came home from junior high school to find my mom waiting for me with one of the Harlequin novels from my stash. As she was gearing up for the "you shouldn't be reading this" lecture, I told her the characters get married in the end. I'm just glad she didn't find the Bertrice Small book hidden in my closet. I have diverse reading tastes, evident by the wide array of genres on my Kindle. As I made the transition to an e-reader, I found myself worrying that something could happen to it. As a result, I am now the proud owner of four Kindles -- all different kinds, but plenty of back-ups! "Fifty Shades of Grey" gets high marks on my favorites list -- not for character development or dialogue (definitely not!), but because it blazed new ground for those of us who believe provocative fiction is more than just an explicit cover. Sylvia Day, Lexie Blake, and Kristin Hannah are some of my favorite authors. Speaking of diverse tastes, I also enjoy Dean Koontz, Iris Johansen, and J.A. Konrath. I’m always ready to discover new-to-me authors, especially when I toss in a palate cleanser that is much different than what I would normally read. Give me something with a well-defined storyline, add some suspense (or spice), and I am a happy reader. Give me a happily ever after, and I am downright giddy.
