Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book walks each of us through the reality checks we need in order to have the marriage we want!” —Shaunti Feldhahn, social researcher and best-selling author of For Women Only In today’s workplace, women are often rewarded for having type A personalities: driven, demanding, ambitious, and strong. Yet when it comes to their marriages, those same traits can backfire. After all, no one goes into marriage hoping for a promotion. What is a wife to do? April Cassidy knows this struggle firsthand. She thought she was a great Christian wife and begged God to make her passive husband into a more loving, involved, godly leader. Instead, God opened her eyes to changes that she needed to make, such as laying down her desire for control and offering genuine, unconditional respect—not just love—to her husband. Cassidy’s conclusions may be as startling to readers as they were to her, but The Peaceful Wife shares how she and many others have learned to reorient their lives to biblical commands—resulting in healthier, happier marriages. In the end, you’ll find The Peaceful Wife a powerful path to God’s design for women to live in full submission to Christ as Lord.

Download or read book The Married Man Sex Life Primer 2011 written by Athol Kay and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of the innovative sex and marriage blog "Married Man Sex Life" brings together his edgy and brilliant advice in a single volume primer delivering the motherload of substance. The Married Man Sex Life Primer 2011 cherry picks the best ideas of books like "The Mystery Method," "No More Mr. Nice Guy," and the volatile online world of the Pickup Artist a.k.a. "Game" community and merges them with a solid grounding in evolutionary psychology, sociology, biology and behavior modification. The result is a simple, effective plan for men to create sexually exciting marriages for themselves and their wives. The opening covers the underlying ancient "hard-wired" biological and modern social reasons women find men attractive. Athol pulls no punches here and the sexual motivations of women are laid bare. Though rather than framing women as sexually devious and seeking to advantage themselves over men, he explains how their sexual behavior is entirely rational in nature and once understood as such, it becomes very useful information. The second part of the book takes the framework developed in the first part and offers a wealth of tools to put it to practical use. The most important tool is The Male Action Plan, which charges the husband with the task of becoming a better, sexier man and thereby leveraging his increased attractiveness for a better sex life with his wife. As Athol says, "whoever is the most attractive in the relationship is in charge." The third part of the book is a treasure trove of playful sexy and romantic moves women will find charming and engaging. It's clear that Athol could have a harem of young ladies, but here he displays an endless variety of playful instigation to continually charm just one. The final section is a catchall of serious topics on what not to do, how to choose a wife, the current state of marriage law and a crushingly simple approach to dealing with being cheated on. (Want a better man? Leave it where he can find it.)

This erotic tale allows you to take a peek into a day with Ashley Brayton who prides herself on being a good housewife but has reached a point in her life where she is struggling between remaining loyal to her husband, Mark, by keeping her secret fantasies locked away in her mind or allowing the lusts of her heart to finally be unleashed. But Ashley is forced with choosing between her struggles quicker than expected when she encounters Jordyn, the new neighbor who just moved in across the street and is wasting no time with her attempts to seduce Ashley. In Volume 2 of the Wife Wants a Lesbian Erotica Affair series, we pick up where Volume 1 (Wife Wants a Woman) left off as we take a more extensive peek into the life of Ashley Brayton who has grown tired of playing the role of happy housewife for a man who doesn't appreciate her. And after a lifetime of keeping her attraction to women a secret - reserved exclusively for private fantasies - Ashley recently acted on the hidden desires of her heart when her lusts were unleashed by her hot new neighbor, Jordyn, who wasted no time with seducing Ashley; helping her realize just how badly she wants more of the same ...a lot more. As this erotic tale continues to unfold, Ashley finds answers to some of her questions - while many new ones surface - when she is introduced to a kinky type of foreplay that leaves her wanting to explore more of this newly discovered fantasy world full of endless opportunities to role-play. In Volume 3 of the Wife Wants a Lesbian Erotica Affair series, our story wastes no time as it picks up at the cliff-hanger where Volume 2 (Wife Wants Another Woman) left off.

But as Ashley's feelings begin growing rapidly stronger for Jill - an energetic open-minded beauty; full of new ideas - the sexual chemistry they share for one another reaches a new level when they develop an intimate emotional connection to go along with it. And just as Ashley fully accepts the fact that her marriage to Mark has been seriously lacking and she becomes comfortable with keeping secrets from him; believing that it's the only possible way for her to find complete satisfaction without hurting him, he throws her an unexpected curve-ball that has her second guessing her conclusions and rethinking her prior perception of their marriage as she is told about an entirely new type of lifestyle that plants the had never imagined she would ever consider ... until now.

My Wife Said You May Want to Marry Me is the poignant, unreserved, and inspiring story of a great love, the aftermath of a marriage ended too soon, and how a surviving partner eventually found a new perspective on life’s joys in the wake of tremendous loss.
