This review is from: Tightening the Knot: Couple-Tested Ideas to Keep Your Marriage Strong (Paperback)

I had read this little book a long time ago and often gave it as part of a wedding gift. It contains countless wonderful ideas on how to keep your marriage alive and strong. After discovering that it is out of print, I was delighted to still find a copy on Amazon. Thank you for being such a great resource!
