Dating For Marriage: A Love Beyond Disney's Promises (MHM)

Dating to Marry: A Love Beyond Disney’s Promises is not a fairy tale. It’s your survival guide to stop repeating heartbreak and start building a love that lasts.

Why do smart, capable women keep falling for the wrong ones? Why do the “Prince Charming's” who look good on paper turn into villains once the ring slips on? The answer isn’t luck — it’s patterns. Trauma teaches your nervous system to confuse familiar with safe. And until you heal, your love life runs on autopilot, chasing chaos instead of choosing peace.

Brandy Grace knows this story because she lived it. From childhood wounds that shaped her early relationships, to a 600-dates-in-6-months experiment that became legendary in her singles community, she’s walked through betrayal, gaslighting, and “situationships” before finally finding the steady love that heals instead of harms. Today, she’s a minister, trauma educator, and Southern mama with a sassy cadence and a front-porch heart — and she’s here to hand you the tools she used to break free.

Inside, you’ll discover how to:

• Identify and break repeating relationship patterns
• Date smarter with practical safety rules and clear red flags
• Set boundaries that attract respect, not rejection
• Build marriages on friendship, not just chemistry
• Invest more time in planning your marriage than your wedding

Each chapter blends raw storytelling with behavioral science, faith, and practical tools. You’ll get:

• 💡 Clear wisdom recaps
• 📚 Worksheets to apply the lessons
• 📝 Journal prompts to dig deeper
• ✨ Affirmations and rituals to anchor healing
• 🍽️ “Potluck for the Soul” recipes so you can learn in community

This is not about chasing castles or crowns. It’s about choosing steady love over stormy chaos, healing wounds so you can spot the green lights, and finally stepping into the marriage you deserve.

Because broken crayons still color. And broken hearts can heal.
