Let's get one thing established here first. I like to see who wrote the book that has the potential to influence me. Juli Slattery is a widely known clinical psychologist, author, and broadcast media professional with over 25 years of experience counseling and teaching women. She is known for her commitment to biblical principles and is a highly sought after speaker. She was the former co-host of the Focus on the Family Broadcast and co-founder of Authentic Intimacy, an international non-profit designed to minister to women. Well, I believe the author knows what she is talking about!

In my opinion, this book should be read by every woman to prepare for marriage and by every woman who wants to improve their relationship with her husband. Even after more than 30 years as a wife, I found that I needed to be reminded of some of the "best practices"!

I found a couple of the chapters a harder read. For example, I think I will have to reread the chapter on submission. But I really liked the way the author described what submission means. It was like a light bulb went on in my head!

Overall, a biblically sound book for every Christian woman who wants the best for her marriage.
