"We tend to lack humility toward love, to patronize it rather than bow before it, to put mundane considerations before the emotional need to hold someone in our arms." When we make routines and practicality more valuable than love, we deny ourselves the opportunity to experience true enchantment and a deeper connection with God. Ultimately, Williamson offers a compelling invitation to overcome fear of heartache and enter into the whirlwind mystery of romance. Chapters include topics such as "Removing the Ghosts," "Grace and Forgiveness," "Marriage, Monogamy, Safety and God," and "Bodies and Soul."<p> Some readers may find Williamson's theories about male-female dynamics validating, while others may find them offensive. For example, Williamson believes that males are natural-born hunters, which means men need the thrill of the hunt during courtship and beyond. "A man should never have to totally stop working to figure out his woman, not if the woman wants him to remain interested," she claims. In fact, she believes that a fascinating woman is like a "Mercedes" or "Jaguar"--she is "high maintenance and doesn't apologize for the fact." <I>--Gail Hudson</I> 398021 1999 Enchanted Love: The Mystical Power Of Intimate Relationships total:101|5:42|4:26|3:24|2:7|1:2| 101 402 138 11 5 0 false false Sat Feb 07 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 07 17:43:27 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 24 10:27:00 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sun Jul 19 15:37:39 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 19 15:41:19 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Tue Dec 30 14:52:42 -0800 2008 Tue Dec 30 14:53:51 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Thu Dec 11 19:37:01 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 11 19:37:26 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Tue Mar 24 12:35:34 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 24 12:35:51 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2005 Tue May 29 06:38:32 -0700 2007 Tue May 29 06:39:48 -0700 2007 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Jun 08 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 08 17:55:52 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 08 17:57:14 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sat Nov 01 00:00:00 -0800 2003 Thu Jul 31 07:43:58 -0700 2008 Thu Jul 31 17:34:03 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Mon Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Fri Oct 26 21:20:24 -0700 2007 Fri Oct 26 21:24:16 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Fri Apr 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Tue Nov 11 07:59:54 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 11 08:00:35 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Thu Mar 27 06:33:42 -0700 2008 Thu Mar 27 06:33:56 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Nov 26 10:22:49 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 26 10:22:49 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Tue Nov 17 12:36:45 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 17 12:36:45 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Mon Nov 16 06:50:55 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 16 06:50:57 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Nov 04 16:33:03 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 04 16:33:03 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Mon Oct 26 22:42:16 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 26 22:42:16 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2003 Sun Oct 25 19:06:31 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 20:06:33 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Wed Oct 14 17:18:11 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 14 17:18:11 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Sep 21 06:16:00 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 21 06:16:00 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Sep 20 20:31:15 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 20:31:15 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=408717
