Relationships can be challenging especially in a marriage. You see someone that catches your eyes across the room that you must get to know. You meet, connect, and decide that you can't live without each other. Three to five years later, you're at odds with each other and can't stand to be in the same space, you're considering a divorce or separation. What happened? In What's Forever For? A Physician's Guide for Everlasting Love and Success in Marriage by marriage and engagement coach, Dr. George "Jeep" Naum uses his marriage of over 27 years and over 25 years of experience to help couples strategically find and keep the spark in the special union of marriage. The reader will see through the eyes of three couples at different levels which will reflect the ebb and flow of the challenges that couples face and the ways to overcome them. Dr. Naum digs deep by immediately defining marriage. Marriage is a commitment, contract, and bond that two people make with each other until death do them part. After each chapter, couples are asked questions as if they were personally seated in his office. This process enhances the learning experience. This book is ideal particularly for those couples that may not be willing to go to an expert and bare their souls.

I enjoyed reading What's Forever For? because it's self-contained by sharing different types of relationships, asking probing questions either about themselves or their perspectives of the couples featured in the book, and the importance of exercising the love huddle principles. The reader will discover that the love huddle is essential for connecting by daily sharing and spending quality time together each day. A book of this caliber allows couples to work through their relationship at their own pace. Regardless of where you are in your relationship, it is always a great idea to find good techniques for a long-lasting and healthy marriage. Highly recommended.
