Chock full of real life experiences as well as the Laura's own personal experience, this book is a brilliant guide for people looking for advice on the physical realities that people will face when looking at cohabitation, combining finances and children. A gem of a resource that I will find myself recommending time and time again as soon as it's available!--Lola Phoenix, author of The Anxious Person's Guide to Non-Monogamy
Boyle's research into the lives of cohabitating polyamorous adults is illuminating and inspiring--Sarah Stroh of @monogamish_me
