Publisher's Synopsis
With musical strains of "Here Comes the Bride" echoing faintly in their ears, the newlywed couple stands peering down the path to wedded bliss, or so it seems!
A problematic marriage often emerges similarly to the onset of the common cold. Symptoms clue us in to a greater problem, but by the time they appear the cold is already firmly entrenched in the body. We're sick before we even know it.
The same is true for marriage. Contrary to popular belief, problems like financial stress, infidelity and irreconcilable differences aren't the root causes of marital trouble, but are in fact symptoms of deeper issues.
In this book readers will learn how to prepare a firm foundation for a successful marriage long before starting a sexual relationship or exchanging vows, and to identify, solve, and proactively guard against many of the underlying issues that doom so many marriages today.
