Quiet Love (& Growing It): 14 Rules to Find, Build, and Keep the Best Relationship of Your Life (Quiet Living) by Matthew Hess

In a world where love is often seen as a magical, predestined event or a grand gesture, many find themselves facing unrealistic expectations and shallow connections. Hess challenges these notions by introducing the concept of “quiet love”—a simple, observant, and action-based approach to nurturing relationships. Hess explains how love is not just a feeling or attraction but a series of selfless actions that improve the life of someone you care about. He debunks the myth of “love at first sight” and emphasizes the importance of growth and effort in sustaining a healthy, long-lasting relationship.
