About this listen
Design a life intentionally. Grow faithfully. Create something beautiful that will last!
Over half a million listeners have joined the journey of Instagram sensations Ashley and Dino Petrone. Through their popular online community Arrows and Bow, Ashley and Dino share their adventures, mishaps, and joys of building a life together using an unexpected element: design.
Now, in their much-anticipated debut book, Ashley and Dino invite listeners into their home and relationship through their trademark honest and hilarious storytelling. They share both never-before-revealed and fan-favorite stories, including
- Getting engaged after only three weeks!
- Why they chose to wait until their wedding night
- Moving into an RV with three kids (and they’re still speaking to each other!)
- The unexpected, painful circumstances that led them to find deeper hope
- Turning Ashley’s creative hobby into a thriving business...and so much more!
Ashley and Dino are the first to say they don’t have all the answers, but they welcome you to join them as they share the struggles and successes that come from intentionally staying committed to God and each other. Because when you build with faith, creativity, and love as the foundation...you build something designed to last.

Joanna Gaines' new book, The Stories We Tell, invites us on an authentic and deeply vulnerable journey into her story—and helps shine a light on the beauty of our own—guiding us to release the weights that hold us back so we may live and share our story in truth. We've all dropped anchor in places that suited us for a time: a city, a perspective, a lie we mistook as truth. This book is an invitation to a kind of life where you know how to hold what you believe—about yourself and the quiet worlds behind the people you pass—with gracious and open hands.

From Erin Napier, coauthor with her husband, Ben, of their memoir Make Something Good Today, comes a collection of essays walking us through every room in her home, telling the story of a family’s life, of the days that made their home the place she longs for when she’s away.

Forget hustle harder. Forget a mandatory 5 a.m. wake-up. Forget outlining your life plan in six-month, one-year, and five-year spans.

In her first book, Jenna Kutcher—entrepreneur, photographer, influencer, teacher, mom, and host of the wildly popular Goal Digger podcast—shares her philosophy on how to live a life that exists outside the tired cliché of “having it all.”

Story
So much of our belief can be formulaic. We often think that if we do A, B, and C, then God will do X, Y, and Z. We check things off the “Good Christian Checklist,” trusting we’ll be okay, and our trials will be minimal. But when our experiences inevitably deviate from that belief, our trust in God often crumbles. After a series of life-altering trials—including a devastating diagnosis—uncovering faith in the cracks of pain is something Kristen LaValley knows well.

Blood Moon is the story of the century-long blood feud between two rival Cherokee chiefs from the early years of the United States through the infamous Trail of Tears and into the Civil War. While little remembered today, their mutual hatred shaped the tragic history of the tribe far more than anyone, even the reviled President Andrew Jackson, ever did.

No stranger herself to loss and heartache, Jodi knew she had to give Solomon a home. The road to recovery wouldn’t be easy.

Inspirational Love story
This book is so well done. I enjoyed learning about one of my favorite bloggers. I loved hearing the authors read their own story, so personal. Their faith definitely shines through as the star of this book. Looking forward to following them on their next adventure.

A great read for everyone
Dino and Ashley, what an amazing brave and adventurous couple. I love how they lay it all out in this book the wins, the losses, the struggle, and the success! I also really enjoyed being able to hear from them individually. Seeing the issues from both sides. Thanks for this amazing story. I have followed them on Instagram for years and can’t wait to see what

Soooo Good!!
I was lucky enough to read this book before release and man was it sooo good. Its a little marriage, a little faith, inspiration and design all wrapped into one . I think my favorite part was having the same story told from both Ashley and Dino's perspective. It definitely made me reflect on my marriage and how to go about things differently when it comes to disagreements and decisions. If I could rate this book a 10 I would. It made me smile, cry , and want to get going full throttle on things im passionate about .

Real-Est Couple Award
While hearing them stumble over there words in the first chapter or two, you can hear them start to get the hang of it, I still enjoyed hearing some of the mis-reads as they, the authors themselves, read their story that they wrote themselves, together. What a beautiful story, what inspiring,  motivating and encouraging words they have to share. I think my favorite part is hearing Dino on the verge of and fully crying in certain parts. There’s just something about a man expressing his feelings freely, that cuts me to my core. Such a beautiful thing to hear. Thank you Dino and  Ashley.

It ended too soon 😜
I started following Arrows and Bows on instagram during the pandemic. I wanted to listen to learn a little more about the Petrine family story. I learned a lot more than that. I would highly recommend this to couples wanting to get stronger in their marriages. I was sad when it ended.

A must read!
I absolutely loved this book! I was hesitant to read it at first but it's raw, funny and literally everyone can take something from this book (as Ash says at the beginning). I listened to the audio version since it's the author's voices and am so glad I did! it made it that much more enjoyable.

Here for the Petrons!
I have been a long time follower of Ashley's! I love her and her sweet family, her relationship between her and Dino have been magical to follow over the years. this book was simply put in well written to explain their lifestyle and what it means to be married and have a marriage with someone and to grow throughout it. I also have big kudos for Ashley for narrating this, I think this could be a part-time job for you! You're really good at narrating! There were times where it was slightly hard to hear Dino and I would have to change in between volumes.
overall this is an excellent book!
