Pamper Your Partner: Thirty Days to a Romantic Relationship

By Susan H Hubbs

For many couples, finding time for romance can seem like a daunting proposition. The word "romance" conjures up overwhelming and elaborate scenario's involving reservations, champagne, maitre d's, and roses.

In this book, Susan Hubbs gives loving couples an alternative to expensive and impractical romantic gestures. She lays out straightforward steps that guide readers through thirty days of "tried and true" demonstrations of love that appeal to men and women alike!

Each "chapter" contains a romantic quote and an activity that can be completed in one day without extensive planning or outrageous cost. If any activity does require money, a "Penny Saver" is included, offering an alternative suggestion which requires absolutely no cash outlay!

This book is a breakthrough because Susan Hubbs is not an acclaimed professor or a psychologist dispensing Ph.D. wisdom. She is, however, one half of a loving couple that places romance high on the list of relationship priorities. Couples discouraged by other books on romance which speak in psychological rhetoric will welcome Susan's book with a smile and a huge sigh of relief---and then proceed down a thirty day path to the joy of romantic enlightenment!

Preface

"We are all born with a box of matches inside. We can’t light them by ourselves.

The oxygen (to feed the flame) has to come from a lover’s breath, the candle (to provide the spark) can be anything: a melody, a word, a caress, a sound.

Everyone has to discover what will pull his trigger to enable him to live, because it is that explosive flare of the match that feeds our souls."

from Like Water for Chocolate, a novel & motion picture novel by Laura Esquivel, published 1990
