[moowshiri]

The fact that Hillary and Roger went for their honeymoon after ten years serves as a wake-up call to all couples, that they should always strive to achieve their unaccomplished marriage goals.

An interesting observation. I didn't read the previous books of the series, so I don't know if I missed anything important about the story of their marriage. Certainly, I had the impression that their honeymoon meant that there's still a "spark" in their marriage.

Very true indeed!

I agree, i know that many look at marriage as settling down like all the fun things are behind you but its not. You just now have someone to do all those fun things with. Yeah it wont be as simple as packing up and going but, it can be done.

Yes, that is true, it means furst-time is still present

Same to me. You have to accomplish what you want, even though it is difficult.

Marriage becomes busier when children start coming, and it is paramount to know how to balance the relationship with the kids and the relationship with your partner. So, sure when some relationship goals are left behind, it is good to strive to achieve them.

[Jajachris]

I cannot agree less. A lot of couples seem to forget the things they set out to do at the start of their union.

[Nujudee]

Exactly. Not more than just a wake up call but a re-awakening that it's important.
Variety they say, is the spice of life.

Totally agree. Better late than never. For a busy married couple, this is not just a luxury, it is a necessity to have a heatlhy relationship and will keep both parties sane, which in turn, will also benefit their kids.

Ten years is a long time. But after ten years they still have the fire and love so much so that they want to have their honeymoon tells a lot about their marriage life. The two previous books would have shed more light on this love. It shows that they have a great relationship

This is definitely something that is great about this novel. I think most mysteries that I read tend to have a single protagonist so I haven't seen this depicted before. The loving relationship that it shows is an asset to this novel and potentially allows it to appeal to a larger audience.

[Reubeney]

Sounds like an intriguing and exciting observation. It is true, we should keep our dreams until we have successfully achieved them.

[Mrunalpatki]

Interesting point of view. I agree, married couple mustn't lose out on any opportunity for adding that extra spark to their life. So if they've for some reason missed on that oh so important phase, they should grab the next opportunity. Better late than never.

I took it as a sign of rekindling their romance after having a child. Generally people become engrossed in the parenting part and then their career that they forget that they have a life excluding being a parent and a job. Maybe they wanted a break from the rat race hence a honeymoon with their kid and also meeting up with their past friends whom they had lost touch with. That’s what I understood from solely reading this book.
