Now, my husband caught me reading this book the other day and he was rather flustered. *GRINZ* At first glance, it seems that I’ve been reading a book that teaches me the art of cheating and infidelity, but truthfully, it is not. This book does not teach me how to cheat on my husband. Quite contrary, I must say.

This is a motivational book that teaches you how to reinvent passion between you and your spouse. Admit it, most of us feel as if things has indeed become mundane after being in a marriage for quite some time, and more often than not, we took our other half for granted.

This is a very good motivational/self-help book. Though the content is not anything new, and I’m mostly familiar with most of the case study, I find that I could learn a few tricks to make my relationship with my husband much more exciting than it is now.

My only complain about this book is that it is rather repetitive. I get alot of points that it’s trying to convey, considering that I’ve been married for almost a decade… I wish the author does not try to emphasize too much on how things gets mundane and we need to fix that. I know that.

Overall, a very educational read, and I highly recommend this to all married couple who feels that they need to do something to renew the passion and love in their marriage.

Despite of it’s flaw and repetitiveness where case studies are concerned, I rate this book 5 stars, simply because it helps me understand more about my relationship with my husband, and it helps me appreciate him more and see him as my lover instead of just the father to my child.

I received an ARC of this book from Rodale Publisher via Negatlley. I was not compensated in any ways for writing this review.

Book description:

There’s an old joke that after years of marriage a man complains, “She changed!” and a woman complains “He didn’t!” Just as change is a part of life, it’s also a part of marriage—a healthy and normal part of it.

Too many women wake up in their marriages and ask themselves, “Is this it?” After years of sharing domestic duties, raising kids, and balancing careers, many of us can’t help but wonder if we’re living the lives we intended to have.
