If you took 100 marriages today, how many would last? Let’s say 50 make it past divorce. Of those, how many are actually happy, passionate, and fulfilling? Maybe half—on a good day. That means your odds of having a truly happy marriage might be less than 1 in 4. And let’s be honest… even that feels generous.

The stats are depressing—but your future doesn’t have to be.

Who you marry is the single most important decision of your life. Yet most people prepare more for a vacation than for a lifelong commitment. How many classes did you take on building a healthy marriage? How many books have you read? How many mistakes are you willing to make before learning how love actually works?

That’s where this book comes in. Think of it as your relationship survival guide—with sunscreen.

It’s packed with real-life wisdom, wit, and eye-opening truths that will help you navigate dating, love, and marriage with clarity and confidence. Unless you marry a narcissist… in which case, grab my next book, Emotional Vampires.
