Book By: Dr. Les Parrott III & Dr. Leslie Parrott

A proactive step to enhance the depth in your wedding vows, this book, written by the marriage counsel and research couple, Dr. Les & Dr. Leslie Parrott, is a godsend for all couples-and not just the "to-be-married" ones. It renders a heart-warming approach to the issues of marriage through true examples based on their own lives. The Parrotts explain insights on how men think differently from women, with an attempt to prepare them mentally for possible fallouts and to save the unpleasant patches in their marriage. The narration style is quite authoritative yet it imbibes a gentle tone like that of a mentor - a mentor who has a trove of experience. They hope to avert younger couples from repeating the same mistakes, so that the evolution from being single to married is a smooth one.

Arranged around seven questions regarding honesty in marriage myths, your style of love, linking the gender gap etc., this is not just another marriage counselor in written form; it has a special role to play. It is a part of the big dream that Drs Les and Leslie have nurtured - that of grooming young couples for a lifelong successful marriage. It is the first ever genuine, sincere and a comprehensive pre-marital counseling guide for couples of the present generation, written by another couple who understands their stress and struggles.

The book aims to educate the reader about how to deal with possible problems that arise in a marriage and how to handle them. It teaches you the difference between "talking" and "communicating" that can mean the difference between getting a life partner and a soul mate. Replete with a workbook, practice tests and experiments, as well as questions after every chapter, help you get a better grasp of each subject.

Just to warn the reader that certain practice experiments, if not applied correctly could lead to tensions. Certain important issues are dealt in a touch-n-go manner without giving details, which can seem like a crash course in marriage and relationships.

Nevertheless, the seven principles are explained in such a lucid manner that it makes them easier to implement in real life. What is more exciting is that the theories are applicable to all couples, irrespective of their marital phase and status. Of the various titles dedicated to this subject, this book, by far, is rated the best and not without reason. It has rendered a positive effect in many couples' lives. So turn your wedding vows to wedding wows!
