Lauren Akins Live in Love

Akins will give readers a peek at what it’s really like to be “the perfect couple” fans imagine, and what it actually takes to live in love, stay in love, and grow together.

The song’s success was especially meaningful for Akins because it was a musical tribute from Thomas Rhett, who had written the lyrics about her and their romance. But her husband’s fame left Akins wondering: “How can I live my own life of purpose?”
