About this listen
Relationship advice that your father didn't tell you and your mother didn't know.
Successful. Beautiful. Intelligent. Yet a satisfying relationship eludes Debra Hampton. At 35 years old, she can't figure out why her philosophy on men - and what they want from women - isn't working. She's trapped in a cycle of shattered relationships until a friend refers her to a relationship guru. After some resistance, Debra finds refuge in his counsel as he helps her navigate through the storms of rejection and failed love. Once he reveals the error of her ways, will Debra master the forbidden secrets to attract her soul mate or continue to keep love at bay?
Although The Forbidden Secrets of the Goody Box is fiction, it contains real relationship advice from men whom women would be crazy to ignore, including:
- Three things that cause you to make terrible relationship decisions
- Every man's private marriage checklist
- A simple two-letter word that makes him want to pop the question
- Why he just won't propose
- Little signs that tell you he's the one
- How to become a "man whisperer"
Valerie J. Lewis Coleman has helped women find relational fulfillment by identifying the four types of male hunters, avoiding 70 percent of men who want only the goody box, and winning the heart of Mr. Right-for-You. She explains how she overcame struggles and offers proven techniques to help you get off the crazy cycle of relational demise in her novel, The Forbidden Secrets of the Goody Box!
Full list of narrators includes: Becky Barrett Jones, Lamar Lewis, and Law Dunford.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 5,180
It was just a typical Monday. Until the big boss asked me to make the pitch for a prospective new client. After two years on shaky ground at work because of my screw up, an opportunity to impress the senior partners was just what I needed. Or so I thought, until I walked into the conference room and collided with the man I was supposed to pitch to. My coffee spilled, my files tumbled to the ground, and I almost lost my balance. And that was the good part of my day. Because the gorgeous man who crouched down and looked at me like he wanted to eat me alive was none other than my ex.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.
