This book cover has it’s charms. It’s black with hot pink lettering. It’s the kind of book that sort of makes you feel self conscious if you’re reading it in public, but once you peel back the cover and dive in it’s like a wise older woman pulling up to give you sound advice on how to be the best sexually confident wife you can be. I bought this book at least a year or so ago, but never got the courage up to crack it open. I finally decided to and it’s taken me a good long while to finish it, but it’s been worth taking my time reading it.
The author, Shannon, goes over so many different topics about sex I blushed a number of times. I never thought I’d hear a Christian author talk about anal sex, creating a private husband and wife porno for their own viewing pleasure, getting away for a weekend filled with just sex. I felt like I could breath again and that not all Christian women are prudes or boring when it comes to such a deeply personal topic. Shannon wrote with humor, honesty and firmness at times.
I was a bit shy to admit I was reading this. Didn’t the title sound like I was needing major help? That rather than being a wild fun woman I was instead a frumpy wife who was clueless in how to please her husband? After confessing the title I was currently reading to a new friend I found out she sounded interested in it too and that it sounded like a very helpful book. Maybe I’m not the only one who could use a friendly written marital book on sex.
I would highly recommend this book to any wife who needs a little encouragement, or a lot of encouragement. You don’t have to be a Christian to read it. Shannon is sensitive and doesn’t preach at you. She even uses the word Higher Power occasionally. I’d even recommend husbands to read this book after their wives do since it does discuss ways in which couples can enhance their sexual life and sexual communication. I’m relieved and glad I chose to purchase this book. If only I’d read it sooner.
