Wild at Heart Expanded Edition: Discovering the Secret of a Man's Soul
by John Eldredge

Wild at Heart is one of Trish’s all time favorite books. It identifies the 3 needs of every man and the 3 desires of every woman. It explains that men need to feel respected and to have peace, while woman need to feel cherished, safe and secure. Understanding how both men and woman were created and for what purposes allows each to live in their strengths and to become the perfect complement to each other.

Captivating Expanded Edition: Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman’s Soul
by Stasi and John Eldredge

While Captivating is the “sister” book to Wild at Heart, Trish feels that this book does not hit the mark that the other does and that feminine is covered enough in Wild at Heart.
