Discover the forty rules of love...Ella Rubinstein has a husband, three teenage children, and a pleasant home. Everything that should make her confident and fulfilled. Yet there is an emptiness at the heart of Ellas life - an emptiness once filled by love. So when Ella reads a manuscript about the thirteenth-century Sufi poet Rumi and Shams of Tabriz, and his forty rules of life and love, her world is turned upside down. She embarks on a journey to meet the mysterious author of this work. It is a quest infused with Sufi mysticism and verse, taking Ella and us into an exotic world where faith and love are heartbreakingly explored...\"Enlightening, enthralling. An affecting paean to faith and love.\" (Metro). \"Colourfully woven and beguilingly intelligent.\" (Daily Telegraph). \"The past and present fit together beautifully in a passionate defence of passion itself.\" (The Times).

After nearly two years separated, she is elated that for once, time is on their side, and she immediately says yes when Atlas asks her on a date.\n\nBut her excitement is quickly hampered by the knowledge that, though they are no longer married, Ryle is still very much a part of her life—and Atlas Corrigan is the one man he will hate being in his ex-wife and daughter's life.\n\nSwitching between the perspectives of Lily and Atlas, It Starts with Us picks up right where the epilogue for the bestselling phenomenon It Ends with Us left off.
