Synopsis

Laura Doyle's marriage was in trouble, and couples counseling wasn't helping. On the brink of divorce, she decided to talk to women who'd been happily married for over a decade, and their advice stunned her. Now an internationally-recognized relationship expert, Doyle has shared her secrets with women around the globe, saving thousands of marriages with her fresh, revolutionary approach.

Practical and counter-intuitive, the Six Intimacy Skills are about focusing on your own desires and transforming your own life—not bending over backwards to transform your husband. Incorporating these skills will empower you to: attract his attention like a magnet when you relax more and do less; receive affection not because you told him to make more of an effort, but because he naturally seeks you out; and feel more like yourself—and like yourself more.

If you've been trying to "fix" your relationship and it's not working, maybe the problem was never you, or your husband, or even the two of you as a couple. Maybe the problem is that nobody ever taught you the skills you need to foster respect, tenderness, and consideration.

Goodreads review by Mystie on August 23, 2024

Read because my friend Stefani recommended it and other friends were reading it also. I laughed out loud during many parts of this book. Apparently, as long as you give biblical advice from a secular perspective, it won't trigger the internet rage machine. Doyle's marriage advice boils down to "Wives......more

I have no idea how to rate this book. 5 Star Advice 2 Star advertising (quit talking up your coaches.) Loose a star for things that I *really* dislike. Gain a star or two for containing best advice I've received from marriage book. To begin with, this is not a Christian book. After reading the synopsis......more

Goodreads review by Jessica on January 11, 2022

While I agree with several other reviewers that this book is slightly annoying in its delivery, there were also several instances where I laughed out loud (in a good, amused way), so I find the author to be endearing and quirky overall. It is true that the book contains a lot of marketing for the au......more

Goodreads review by Ami on April 26, 2020

There were a couple of good things that I gleaned from this book, but overall I completely disagree with her main premises. I would even say taking her premises too seriously can even be harmful. And I got really tired of her pushing her services and retreats and her trademarked intimacy skills. Fir......more

Goodreads review by Nelleke on November 16, 2020

I read this because someone highly recommended it. I have a very happy marriage, and as I read I recognized that we actually do many of the things the author recommends. I found it interesting to think things through that I’ve mostly just taken for granted, and also to glean some helpful advice to m......more
