On March 3, 2017, beloved children's book author Amy Krouse Rosenthal published an extraordinary essay in the New York Times Modern Love column entitled, "You May Want to Marry My Husband", encouraging her husband, Jason, to find happiness after she died. The column instantly went viral, reaching over five million people worldwide and sparking an emotional conversation about love and loss. Amy's husband Jason B. Rosenthal picks up where she left off in My Wife Said You May Want to Marry Me. Throughout the memoir, Jason details their remarkable love story, its painful end, and what happened after Jason tried to honor Amy's dying wish to live his best life while he and their three grown children confronted the world without her.
