31 Days to a Happy Husband: What a Man Needs Most from His Wifeby Arlene Pellicane

31 Days to a Happy Husband: What a Man Needs Most from His Wife

by Arlene Pellicane

What does a man need most from his wife? Arlene Pellicane, author of 31 Days to Becoming a Happy Wife, asked numerous husbands that question. Based on their answers, Pellicane identified five keys that will give wives a new appreciation and understanding of how to love and care for their mates.

  • Domestic tranquility--A husband needs a peaceful haven.
  • Respect--A husband needs to be honored in his home.
  • Eros--A husband needs a fulfilling sex life.
  • Attraction--A husband needs to be attracted to his wife.
  • Mutual activities--A husband needs to have fun with his wife.

As you practice these DREAM principles, something amazing will happen. You'll begin to see your husband in a different light. You'll remember what drew you together in the first place. With many practical tools (like the 5-30 second daily kiss), you'll be ready to experience more joy than you've had in a long time. Every day a wife is either building her husband up or tearing him down. This book offers wives a 31-day, no holding back, life-changing building program for their marriages. Get started today!
