Love Potion Number 9: Your Love is Infectious We talk about love as something that happens to us — but what if it's actually something we practice? In this collection of nine heartfelt reflections, Raffiel Cooke explores the everyday habits that make love real: patience, adventure, empathy, boundaries, communication, forgiveness, self-care, self-acceptance, and gratitude. Each chapter moves through the same quiet truth from a different angle — that love toward others always begins with how we treat ourselves, and that the two are never really separate. Written with warmth and hard-won honesty, Love Potion Number 9 isn't a book of rules. It's an invitation to keep choosing love, even when it would be easier not to — in the small daily moments, and in the ones that ask everything of us. Infectious love, Cooke writes, doesn't start with grand gestures. It starts with the choosing, again and again, and it spreads from everyone brave enough to keep choosing it. A gentle, grounded companion for anyone ready to love more fully — starting with themselves.
