The Surrendered Wife
A Practical Guide to Finding Intimacy, Passion, and Peace with a Man [Revised & Updated 2026 Edition]

The marriage guide women never expected to love but then called life-changing and pressed into the hands of women everywhere—now revised and updated, The Surrendered Wife is the New York Times bestseller that has transformed countless marriages.

You love your husband. But sometimes it feels like you’re the only one trying. You remind. You plan. You make everything run smoothly—and yet the more effort you put in, the more distant he seems.

In The Surrendered Wife, you’ll learn why when you stop trying to manage—and fix—things, your partner will lean in. The tender touches will return and he will help without your having to ask.

Counterintuitive? Absolutely. Effective? Millions of women say yes.

The Surrendered Wife equips you to:
• Say the simple phrases that inspire your husband to step up
• Bring back the man you fell in love with—without reminding
• Stop unknowingly pushing him away—and start drawing him closer
• Enjoy the marriage you dreamed of when you said “I do”

It’s easier than you think.
