Would you bet your life on something that has less than a 50% chance of success? How about less than 7%? The statistics clearly tell us that these are your odds when you marry in the United States today. They also tell us that interventions such as marriage counseling rarely help or change the outcome.

But now, clinical and forensic psychologist Tom Merrill, PhD, and his wife Bobbie Sandoz-Merrill, herself an accomplished author, counselor and newspaper columnist, offer a new way to turn the tables on these odds and guarantee your success at the mating game with a book whose title says it all. Settle for More (You Can Have the Relationship You Always Wanted…Guaranteed!) is a volume that reveals how we can establish and maintain loving and lasting relationships of unlimited possibilities. Their unique and tested Model of Relationships prompts an entirely new understanding of the concept of ‘partnership,’ transforming personal interactions from competitive to cooperative and delivering a success rate that can only be described as “mind-blowing.”
