The Three Year Rule is by Alaina Stanford.  It is book 1 of the Rule series.  It is a romance and a suspenseful plot.  It is a very good book and makes for a great summer read.Elizabeth Stewart is a psychologist and a writer.  Her last book is based on the idea of each person having a pseudo personality that comes to light during the romance period and may not  retreat and allow the true personality come out for nearly three years.  She encourages the women who come to hear her speak about her book to wait three years before marrying to make sure the personality their spouse has is one they can live with.  At the end of this last talk, she meets her agent, Franklin who introduces her to Joshua Miller who is going to build her home in the mountains.  She and Joshua go out for dinner to a bar where she ends up dancing with Joshua and getting more and more attracted to him and they end up in bed.  The next morning, her assistant Amy Rothchild arrives with Elizabeth’s dog Charlie.  They go to a secluded cabin where they will live until her house is built.
