'Brutally honest and wildly useful' - Steven BartlettJames J. Sexton has spent over two decades in the trenches of high-stakes divorce - watching good people tear each other apart over bad communication, broken trust and problems that could've been solved early on. If they'd only known what to look for.* How Not to F*ck Up Your Marriage* is what he wishes every couple had read before it was too late. This book is an early warning system, a no-punches-pulled guide to the small mistakes, blind spots, and lazy habits that quietly destroy relationships - and the real work it takes to stay in love for the long haul.

Whether you're in a relationship, out of one, or wondering if yours will last, this is the relationship book written by someone who has seen how they end - and who, despite it all, still believes in love.
