Reta Faye Walker, master-certified relationship counselor, releases her debut self-help book, Guide to Lasting Love: A Therapist’s 21- Day Program to a Fulfilling Relationship (Brown Books Publishing Group; available now). Whether a married couple that’s been together for years, or a couple — like Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce — about to become newlyweds, Walker’s Guide to Lasting Love draws from over 20 years of professional experience to help transform relationships into lasting partnerships.

In her new book, Walker recognizes that when a couple begins to anguish over the “good times” of the past, their relationship has reached a critical juncture. It’s likely time to make the most important decision of the rest of their lives: exit and seek a new, temporary romance, or engage in authentic conversation fueled by daring openness, deep listening, emotional insight, endless curiosity and a desire to overcome any obstacle — together. Understanding that many people hold a fairy-tale picture of love as a pretty lie built on the fickle recollection of honeymoon ecstasy, Walker shows us how building a foundation of understanding can help lead to true, lasting love that grows richer by the day.

“Reta Faye Walker’s Guide to Lasting Love: A Therapist’s 21-Day Program to a Fulfilling Relationship is the perfect resource for anyone looking to reconnect or deepen their connection with their partner, build intimacy and learn skills to create and maintain a healthy and fulfilling partnership. This book is thoughtful, trauma-informed, and offers practical tools to help you navigate your relationship with greater intention and care.” —Leah Aguirre, LCSW, Author of Is This Really Love?; Featured Contributor for GQ and Psychology Today
