Mixed to Match: 2 Cultures, 1 Love

By Sharisse Lynee Lucas and Marvin Keith Lucas

Please, don't buy this book if you want to put a "Band-Aid" over a broken arm. Why? The Lucases have poured their hearts into every page of this book, sharing intimate and sometimes embarrassing aspects of their 30+ year relationship. They believe that through this vulnerability, one will be able to see themselves and be honest with oneself as a partner. This transparency can help to break down cultural/gender barriers and misconceptions that may exist within one's relationship. The Lucases have striven not to settle within their relationship and have tirelessly worked (Soul Work) on themselves mentally, emotionally, and spiritually to make "us" better. This ethos resonates throughout the book. Their goal is to see transformation take place within minority/interracial relationships. This attitude has helped Marvin and Sharisse break destructive generational/cultural patterns that have sometimes existed within their own families
So, what do you want to do? Do you want to have something that perhaps your parents never had? What's to say that your next relationship might not be identical/similar if specific unhelpful patterns within you are not changed? You may not trust your partner, but you can trust the M2M process Why? What's behind it: a 30+ year tried and tested minority relationship, 20+ years of helping couples, two masters' degrees, and a professor of counseling. That's why Remember, the goal: 2 Cultures, 1 Love.
*The M2M book has 25 chapters on different challenges a couple may face from a relational and cultural perspective. For the accountability aspect of the series, it is essential to purchase the M2M "WORKbook" (as WORK will indeed be done). The M2M WORKbook has specific questions for you and your partner and detailed M2M rules of engagement to help communication during sensitive discussion topics.
