Dating the Second Time Around: Finding Love That Lasts

New eHarmony book provides a step-by-step guide to dating again.

Dr Gian Gonzaga, an internationally renowned psychologist and director of research and development at relationship website eHarmony.com.au, is the editor of a new eHarmony® book: Dating the Second Time Around: Finding Love That Lasts. Providing powerful insights and tools that will help people returning to the dating scene find and maintain a great relationship, this internationally published book is the perfect read for those looking to find love this Valentine's Day.

"This book aims to help you understand yourself better and equip you with all the tools needed to find a relationship that's better, stronger and more satisfying that your last," commented Dr. Gonzaga.

"The book compiles all of the insights we at eHarmony have developed by studying thousands of singles and married couples over the past decade. It also contains practical relationship advice to help people overcome common dating obstacles and make better relationship choices. As the director of eHarmony Labs I've come across many people looking for love again after a divorce, bereavement or the end of a long term relationship. The people we meet in our labs are often ready to find love again but are unsure about where to start or how best to put themselves 'out there'. "
