Live in Love is a memoir by Lauren Akins the wife of Thomas Rhett. I’m a sucker for memoirs I just wish I had listened to the audiobook which is read by Lauren and her husband. But reading the print version was still good.

Lauren writes about before and after her marriage and she doesn’t shy away from the hard stuff. She’s shares the ups and downs. I finished the book in a couple of days because I didn’t want to put the book down.

I recommend this book to country music fans and fans of celebrity memoirs.

     I grew up listening to Randy Travis’s music my mom and papaw where huge fans.  So when I heard about his new memoir I knew that I had to read it. And I wasn’t disappointed.  It’s the story of his life in his own words. Unlike most celebrity memoirs he doesn’t sugar coat it.  He does hide anything. He puts ever thing to the page even the bad stuff. Starting with his childhood and continuing today.  

     Throughout the book you will laugh, you will cry but more importantly you will see Randy through his ups and downs and finding his faith again.   His life is indeed a country song.  If you are a country music fan, then this is book that you need to pick up. I recommend having tissues handy when you read this book.
