Do you want a marriage or partnership that sizzles and inspires others? Do you want to dive into an entirely new level of intimacy? Are you ready to do the work? Like for real?

The Birds and Bees of Joyful Monogamy has arrived in your lap at the perfect time. Sometimes, couples authors get dedicated to one point of view or perspective, and you end up needing to read 5 to 10 books to gather the best material, research, and work that exists. Look no further - this book provides a wealth of the predominant research on happy marriages and couples and then puts muscle behind that information with risky, sexy, and in-depth exercises designed to transform your relationship. If you think your partner may not join you on the adventure of this hands-on book, no worries. You will create value by doing the work yourself. And, if you have the delight of diving in with a partner who is ready for date nights that deepen your connection and set you up for a lifetime of a passionately alive partnership, then enjoy!

Lynne Sheridan has a unique perspective in that she has been an international transformational trainer for 27 years, working with tens of thousands of people in creating what matters, wealth, success and yes, happy relationships. At the same time, she is a licensed marriage and family therapist, working with clients who really want to do the work to have their partnership thrive. And after conducting couples retreats for nearly 15 years, she has ample material and evidence to back her practices.

In the prologue, Lynne makes it clear that this isn't a self-help book where the author peddles philosophy from a pedestal; she's been in the muck with all of us but found the beautiful and resilient lotus flower that can bloom with a little work.
