Publisher's summary

Have a new husband by Friday? Is that even possible? Dr. Kevin Leman says it is. The New York Times best-selling author and self-help guru shows even the most frustrated wife how she can have a new husband by Friday. Leman reminds any wife that if what she's doing to get better behavior out of her husband isn't working now, it never will. So it's time for a change. That means it's time to change her own patterns of behavior.

Here's how Leman suggests she handle it day to day:

• Monday: Secrets Revealed: Cracking the Male Code? Yes, you're different species, but you can work together in harmony.
• Tuesday: Creatures from Another Planet...or Creatures of Habit? To understand men, you have to track 'em to their den.
• Wednesday: Think About What You Want to Say, Then Divide It by Ten - how to talk so your guy will really listen...and listen so your guy will really talk.
• Thursday: Think of Him as a Seal Waiting for a Three-Pound Fish - why making love to your man is a key to who he is and how satisfied he'll be, and what's in it for you.
• Friday: It Takes a Real Woman to Make a Man Feel like a Real Man - how to open your man's heart, revolutionize your love life, and turn him into the knight you've always dreamed of.

simple yet insightful

Simple yet insightful... short and to the point while sometimes funny. I would definitely recommend.

Life changing

This book changed my relationship from sour to sweet in a matter of days. Dr.Leman thank you for making my life amazing with my partner again!!

Awesome book

One of the best book on marriage ever listened to. Dr. Leman is down to heart. A must read for every woman who desires to have a harmonious relationship.

Communication and timing of addressing issues with your husband.

This book was extremely eye opening. There are distinct differences in husbands and wives and they way they see things. As I reflect on my own choices in marriage, I’ve made some critical errors. I’m going to try these strategies this week. Gonna recommend this book to others.

Some good information

Maybe I picked the wrong book for our past dysfunctional marriage & upbringing. This book touched on that a bit, but no real help for my marriage. I picked up a few good tips. In my experience, this book is good for couples who are just off track, not major issues in the marriage. I also couldn't get past the narration. The woman had a nice voice, but really monotone. It kept throwing me off. I would have liked it so much better if Dr. Leman would have read it!

It's a great re-read too!

I really enjoyed this book and where it's coming from. I've been guilty of treating my man like an adult child, so some of chapters were quite eye opening, and humbling for me. I've listened to it 3 times now, and started incorporating the principles and techniques into my marriage and let me tell you!!! My relationship has improved 10 fold! It makes sense to me, and even tho I fought the idea of some suggestions, after testing them out, they've been working. I realize not everyone is going to react the same way, but there is a bigger picture to relationships and marriage and if you're down to your last attempt, I highly recommend this book. Try to stay as open minded as possible!

Skipping

The book skipped in many places it made it hard to understand and follow intently.

Giving it a go!

I’ve been married for 16 years. We’ve had amazing years, and we’ve had on the rocks years. We’ve worked through every issue from drugs to pastoral abuse and family issues. But we’ve gotten into a funk. And if I’ve learned anything from all that we’ve been through together, it’s that I can only control me, and me making my own changes has way more power over my marriage and my hubby’s behavior than anyone else could imagine. So, I needed someone to give it to me straight. And this did that. I may not have a new husband by Friday, because it’s Tuesday as I’m finishing the book, but I’m going to do my best.
Took a star away because of the loud music played. Otherwise, I thought a woman reading the book was a good idea. Makes it feel less confrontational, if that makes sense.

Audio awkward

The reader didn't pause long enough between sections or differentiate sections well. The shifts were abrupt and confusing. Also, music was played during the reading of the book at times (again not at natural places but in the middle of a section), sometimes so loud you couldn't hear the text being read. It's the first time I've experienced in audible such a poor and seemingly unedited production. The text itself was good. Same info as many male sympathetic authors...Allison Armstrong, Rori Ray, etc.

A good summary of things important for married

A good summary of things important for husbands and wives. Can come in handy for folks looking to improve relationships.
