This is a book on the importance of the first year of marriage in forming the lifelong commitment that is marriage.  It is written from the aspect of two couples;  the women write one half and the men write the other half.  Topics cover "...money, sex and in-laws, but they cater, thematically and tonally, to the gender of their audience." It is an incredibly eye-opening and frank book that has helped many couples learn more about this person they are committed to and how to serve them better.
