| Summary |
"It Takes One to Tango is a groundbreaking guide that shows how one determined partner acting alone can spark lasting, significant change in a marriage, often accomplishing change that cannot be made any other way. It doesn't matter how short-fused, argumentative, or seemingly impossible your partner can be or how long you've been stuck. Marriage and family therapist Winifred Reilly has this message for struggling partners: Take the lead. Doing so is effective and powerful." -- adapted from Amazon. |
