The mega-millions spent by celebrity couples like Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries or Katy Perry and Russell Brand on their lavish, exotic weddings failed to guarantee long and blissful marriages. And it’s increasingly apparent that most celebrity couples despite their profile and riches can’t seem to make it last. Hollywood divorce lawyer Raul Felder shares the alarming news that, “The divorce rate among celebrities may be as high as 80 percent.” Obviously, money and fame fail to guarantee or buy marital satisfaction. Without even those advantages and facing the inevitable challenges of marriage, do normal married couples stand a chance in today’s culture?

Long-wedded author, Poppy Smith, says “Yes!” Married for thirty-plus years to a man who doesn’t think like her or react, communicate or handle conflict like her, Poppy has much to share on what it takes to build a marriage that not only survives, but becomes an opportunity to grow spiritually.

In this upbeat and biblically grounded book, Poppy encourages her readers with hope and practical tools to grow their marriage. Through her fun, outgoing personality and her passion for communicating life-changing and marriage-transforming truths, her book offers direction and support to women wondering what happened to their dreams.

Why Can’t He Be More Like Me? demonstrates how to:

• Readjust expectations
• Appreciate different strengths
• Communicate to be heard
• Practice a conflict resolution style that works for both partners
• Recognize other’s emotional needs

In Why Can’t He Be More Like ME?, Poppy steers the reader to grow in understanding and accepting that they didn’t marry their clone. Each chapter of the book provides helpful insights into where marital differences come from, and how to turn the negatives in their relationship into places of personal and spiritual growth.
