So, you're in a rut.  You're dating life is non-existant, your relationship is on the rocks, or your marriage is looking murky.  Never fear!  The best dating, relationship, and marriage books ever are here!

Every book listed below is one that I've read at one time or another.  (Research for my novels, I swear!)  Nope, I'm not married, but these books are all great examples of human nature and how to work with them.  You'll get great info from them about what is going wrong, how to fix it, and how to make sure everything in the future turns out great!

The Two Books you Need Most 

If you only buy two books on relationships - two books that cover any and all relationships you will ever have - get these two. The authors (married) are funny, the text is easy to read, and you will get supreme relief from reading about the physiological differences that make relationships so darn difficult.
