“Whether a couple thought they were happily in love, or know they have issues, your book would do a good job PINPOINTING where there are struggles and where theyare quite happy together.  That in of itself  would help a couple know what exactly is going on rather than simply saying, “my fiance is difficult sometimes.”  Hopefully the excercises will also help couples see patterns that lead to annoying traits, or simply see the “dance” marriage brings out in the me-you-we…Your book is more emotionally risky to couples than some books out there that do more “talking at” couples, but with risk comes great potential reward.  You go well beyond assuming an engaged couple is young, naive, and ignorant and take them at face value, ask them to asssess today and work towards a shared future…”

“The premarital counseling workbook is a fantastic tool to assist in evaluating the health of a relationship and the potential for a long term, intimate, happy marriage. It goes beyond the apparent questions and cuts to the core of communication style, emotional safety, how valued you feel by a partner, and how safe you feel in interactions. The workbook also has tools for discussing goals with a partner and a future vision for your marriage and life together.

I feel this book can be very helpful to people in many stages of their relationships. It assists you in determining if a partner is a potential spouse, and it also assists you in setting the foundation for a successful marriage by discussing topics critically important to a marriage but often overlooked. I personally have found it useful in thinking about the type of relationship I would like to have with a future spouse and what qualities I should cultivate in myself and also look for in a partner. I would recommend it for those who are single and thinking about marriage, those who are dating someone and considering the potential of a marriage, and those are  actively planning a marriage and hoping to create a healthy foundation.”
