I have long trusted Vicki Larson's unique ability to highlight and challenge cultural norms in the world of intimate relationships. And, in her new book, LATitude, she has done it again! Yes, Vicki engages our brains by diligently turning to the worlds of sociology, psychology, and economics to build the case that there are benefits to living apart together. But her superpower is engaging our hearts by affirming that every couple needs and deserves to co-create a relationship vision that works for them. I will recommend this book to my students and couples for many years to come.

Once again Vicki Larson challenges the social constructs of what a ‘successful’ relationship looks like. The answer. . . t’s what works best for you. More and more, couples want to define what works best for them, not just follow a well-worn or traditional path. In this book, Larson delves into how couples cohabitate and shows us how ‘separate is the new sexy’.

A comprehensive and well-researched book about the joys and benefits of being what I call apartners—committed partners that live apart. Not every couple is meant to live together, or apart for that matter. It’s all about options. There is simply no cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all way to love, and this book will hopefully help readers, and society at large, to think outside the box. Or house!
