This is a fantastic book that is practical and inspiring for every relationship I have. I happen to know the author and have recently encouraged to do an updated edition of the book. Learning to express our hearts and the feelings we have for all of the people in our lives is vital to our happiness and fulfillment. Dr. Balswick does a masterful job of explaining and teaching us how to understand and express our love for others.
