Praise for Why Women Talk and Men Walk

This is one amazing book. Stosny and Love peel away the layers of resentment, anger and disappointment that engulf so many relationships, and show us how to find the loving heart that is at the core of every marriage. They craft this book with a masterful blend of warmth, straight talk, dead pan humour and, as is always the case when Pat Love's pen hits the paper - true love. The information in this book is so important, and so powerful...
