Most people will admit that they are looking for an amazing love story. Weve all seen those couples, the ones holding hands or whispering to each other as they stare into one anothers eyes as if they share an awesome secret. We watch them and wonder, whats up with those two?
We never anticipated becoming one of those couples. When we met, we just worked on listening to God and preparing ourselves for the story he planned for us. What we learned and want to share is that no matter what your relationship status may be, this amazing story begins with you.
In this book we share more than the events happening around The Surprise Wedding. We share our triumphs and our mistakes, both before and after that day. Youll learn healthy habits you can start practicing today, ones that will help you lay the groundwork for an incredible marriage later. God has something amazing in mind for you, but he cant get you there without your help.
We absolutely believe in The One. And we believe that youre it.

Upon meeting the Leaks, you cant help but see how they both reflect Jesus. From how they met to how they live now, its amazing to see the way they use their gifts and talents as communicators to reinforce what love is: its a surprise and a commitment. Both Amanda and Ryan are continuously sharing this message in all that they do.

In an era when love needs clarity and traditional marriage seems naive, Ryan and Amanda present a practical, entertaining (romantic) apologetic, which appeals to the deep intuitions and longings of the human heart. This love story guides attitudes and behaviors into the fabulous opportunity biblical marriage was designed to provide.

To the little boy who keeps us grounded and makes us better people every day, we dedicate this book to you,
Jaxson Carter Leak.
W hen I was a twenty-six-year-old graduate student, I became very close friends with a wonderful man named Jeff. He was a few years older, the leader of a student Christian fellowship group, and we shared some similar activities. (Truth be told, I just might have joined one of the activities because of him) We were just friends, but we spent lots of time together, and I wondered, Might it become something more?
Shortly before he graduated, Jeff asked me out for lunch and told me that hed been praying about the same thing. He said he wanted to stay away from anything romantic for a while and really dive into a much more purposeful friendship to see if we might be the one for each other. We began talking about everything: our histories, goals, dreams, worries, and weaknesses. We counseled with friends and mentors. I was advised to not just pray, Lord, is he the one? but, Lord, if this is of You, make me the one: make me into the woman Jeff needs as a wife. And make him into the man I need as a husband.
Twenty years later, I look back with awe at how God has answered those prayers. How He honored that effort to not only find the right person, but to be the right person. How he guided two normal, semiselfish, excited-but-clueless people into a true love story. And how He ensured that we found each other in the first place.
As I watch the amazing story of Ryan and Amanda Leak on their famous YouTube video and read about their transition from friendship to marriage, I see an echo of my own history. But as I absorb the vibrant wisdom God has given them to share, I see so many of the lessons I wish I had known during our excited-but-clueless phase!
In this engaging book, Ryan and Amanda as a newlywed millennial couple bring to bear insight far beyond their years. They share solid counsel and encouragement for everyone who has wondered if the right person is around the cornerand real, practical advice for not only finding the one but being that one who someone else is looking forboth now and for years to come.
Im thrilled that a few years ago, a simple little engaged-and-married-in-the-same-day video went viral and has given this remarkable couple a chance to share a big message today. A message that all of us need to hear.

W hat makes an amazing love story? Is it witty conversation over dinner, common interests, shared values, and strength in the face of obstacles, or is it something elsesome secret, elusive element that we can only pray for? Weve all seen those couples, the ones holding hands in the park or whispering to each other as they stare into one anothers eyes, as if they share an awesome secret. We watch them and wonder,
